Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients who developed new-onset nAMD in a second-affected eye, who had previously shown a poor response to as-needed ranibizumab in their first-affected eyes. Patients were diagnosed with nAMD when there was evidence of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) associated with nondrusenoid retinal pigment epithelium detachment (PED), serous or hemorrhagic retinal detachment, subretinal hemorrhage, subretinal pigment epithelial hemorrhage, or subretinal fibrosis.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: (1) patients with diabetic retinopathy or retinal vein occlusion, (2) patients with coexisting epiretinal membranes or vitreomacular traction syndrome, (3) patients with neovascularized maculopathies other than AMD, such as pathological myopia, angioid streaks, and (4) patients with a history of prior photocoagulation, intravitreal anti-VEGF injection, photodynamic therapy, intravitreal or sub-tenon steroid injection, vitrectomy surgery, or intravitreal gas injection.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
visual acuity (VA) in the second-affected eyes;central macular thickness (CMT) in the second-affected eyes;rate of subretinal fluid (SRF) in the second-affected eyes ; rate of intraretinal fluid (IRF) in the second-affected eyes;rate of serosanguineous PED in the second-affected eyes

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Comparison of VA, CMT and retinal morphlogy between the first and the second eyes;Comparison of CMT between the first and the second eyes;Comparison of SRF rate between the first and the second eyes;Comparison of IRF rate between the first and the second eyes;Comparison of PED rate between the first and the second eyes
