Endophthalmitis following anti-VEGF injections for neovascular AMD reduces treatment frequency. This reduction in intravitreal injections is also observed in the unaffected fellow eye, suggesting disease quiescence.
Area of Science:
- Ophthalmology
- Retinal Diseases
- Vascular Biology
Background:
- Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) requires frequent anti-VEGF injections.
- Endophthalmitis is a rare but serious complication of intravitreal injections.
- The impact of endophthalmitis on subsequent treatment frequency is not well understood.
