Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate whether there is an association between known age-related macular degeneration genetic risk variants in the CFH, ARMS2, and HTRA1 genes and response to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (ranibizumab or bevacizumab) treatment for wet age-related macular degeneration.
