With repeated injections of ranibizumab "as needed", VA could be improved as well as MR could be lowered in a majority of patients with wet AMD and therefore reading ability could be optimized. Over 6 months the treatment frequency was lower compared to the monthly administration.
PDT with verteporfin helps achieve stability without severe impairment in reading ability in most patients with predominantly classic subfoveal CNV due to AMD.
