Anatomical and functional changes in neovascular AMD in remission: comparison of fibrocellular and fibrovascular phenotypes.

Neovascular AMD eyes in remission and with evidence of fibrocellular scar are characterised by RPE atrophy and reduced perfusion, which are associated with a higher degree of functional impairment. These findings suggest that maturation of vessels in fibrosis might be a better target in neovascular AMD treatments rather than their abolishment.
