CHORIOCAPILLARIS FLOW DEFICITS AS A RISK FACTOR FOR PROGRESSION OF AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION

Abstract

The CC flow deficit was significantly greater in iAMD eyes that progressed to complete retinal pigment epithelial and outer retinal atrophy and remained an independent risk factor when structural optical coherence tomography biomarkers were considered. CC flow deficits may be useful for enhancing risk stratification and prognostication of patients with iAMD.
