Suofu Qin

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is an idiopathic retinal degenerative malady that prevails in the old in the Western world as a reason for irreversible and significant vision misfortune. AMD happens in two significant structures: atrophic (dry) AMD and exudative (wet) AMD that are both piece of a similar infection cycle and offer comparative hazard factors. The atrophic AMD is described by RPE decay and subjacent photoreceptor degeneration and records for around 80~90% of AMD cases while the exudative AMD is portrayed by choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and retinal discharge . Photodynamic treatment, medical procedure, and hostile to VEGF treatment are as of now accessible medicines for AMD patients with CNV.
