High Levels of C5a Are Associated With Reduced Macular Sensitivity in Patients With Myeloproliferative Neoplasms.

Purpose: Previous findings indicate that patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) exhibit elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers and have a high prevalence of AMD. In this study, we aim to determine whether drusen and systemic inflammation in patients with MPN affect macular sensitivity in the same manner as in patients with AMD.

Methods: The study was conducted as a prospective cross-sectional study.
