An ophthalmologist refers a 66-year-old man for consultation with a retinal specialist. The patient has had blurred and distorted vision in his right eye for the past 2 weeks. Examination reveals drusen beneath the retina in both eyes. His right eye also has a subretinal hemorrhage just temporal to the center of the macula, as well as subretinal fluid (Fig. 1A). A fluorescein angiogram shows subfoveal neovascularization (Fig. 1B). Optical coherence tomography reveals fluid beneath and within the layers of the retina (Fig. 1C). The retinal specialist diagnoses neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and recommends intraocular injections of ranibizumab.
