Unlabelled:
The aim of this paper is to study the morphopathological changes manifested in age-related macular degeneration.
Material And Method:
The researched histopathological material consisted in two eye balls enucleated because of irreversible eye diseases from aged persons suffering from age-related macular degeneration. The method applied for processing the material was inclusion in paraffin, followed by usual coloration with hematoxylin-eosin.
Results And Conclusions:
The established changes (hard drusen, soft drusen, calcified drusen, changes of Bruch's membrane, subretinal neovascularization, serous retinal pigment epithelial detachment, disciform degeneration) prove the importance of Bruch's membrane in the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration.
