Initial treatment combining PBT (24 GyE) with intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy appears to decrease the need for anti-VEGF reinjection in eyes with newly diagnosed eAMD. Radiation retinopathy risk was low and does not appear visually significant. Long-term vision was limited by GA development especially in the 24 GyE group.
