Reading ability could be stabilized with PDT for predominantly classic subfoveal CNV in patients with high myopia or AMD for at least 9-12 months. The risk of developing a severe loss in reading ability (need for magnification >3.2-fold) was significantly reduced in high myopia and was stable over time in AMD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
