Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy (AFVD) shares phenotypic similarities with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The genetic factors associated with AFVD are unknown in >80% of cases. This study evaluated the association of known AMD genetic risk variants with AFVD and compared systemic complement activation in these conditions. Methods: Clinical, imaging, and genetic data were collected...
