Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effectiveness and safety of two treatments—ranibizumab and aflibercept—for managing vascularized pigment epithelium detachment (vPED) caused by age-related macular degeneration (AMD) over 12 months.
- It involved 71 patients, with results showing that aflibercept led to better visual acuity improvements than ranibizumab, although both treatments effectively maintained or improved vision for most patients.
- Both drugs resulted in similar reductions in vPED height and absorption of subretinal fluid, indicating effective anatomical treatment despite the differences in visual acuity outcomes.
