Summary
Brief summary
Retrospective, non-interventional, observational multi-center field study. Patients diagnosed
with wet Age-related macular degeneration (wAMD) and having started treatment with
ranibizumab between January 1, 2009 and August 31, 2009 must be consecutively screened and,
if eligible, enrolled. Patients will be followed up at maximum until August 31, 2011. Switch
to any other Anti vascUlar endothelial growth factor (anti VEGF) treatment will be documented
and followed up. For each patient, demographics, medical history, administered treatments,
results of ocular and visual assessments and other tests (where available) will be
documented.
