Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Adherence to a Mediterranean-type diet is linked to a lower risk of mortality and chronic disease, but the association with the progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and genetic susceptibility is unknown. OBJECTIVE: We examined the association of adherence to the Mediterranean diet and genetic susceptibility with progression to advanced AMD. DESIGN: Among 2525 subjects in the AREDS...
