Progress in defining the molecular biology of age related macular degeneration.

Human genetics - 1 Nov 2007

Lotery Andrew, Trump Dorothy

Abstract excerpt

Age related macular degeneration (AMD) is an extremely prevalent complex genetic disorder. Its incidence rises exponentially in the elderly to a frequency of 1 in 2 in the general population by age 85. It affects approximately 25 million people and is the commonest cause of irreversible visual loss in the Western world. It is therefore a major public health problem. However, until recently its aetiology was...
