Review of genetics in age related macular degeneration.

Seminars in ophthalmology - 1 Jan 2000

Montezuma Sandra R, Sobrin Lucia, Seddon Johanna M

Abstract excerpt

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a degenerative disease of the retina and the leading cause of blindness in industrialized countries. AMD is a complex disease caused by the combination of genetic predisposition and environmental factors. The prevalence of AMD increases with age. The adverse effect of smoking is well established. Genetic predisposition has been demonstrated by familial aggregation studies...
