[Therapeutic options in age-related exudative macular degeneration].
The age-related macular disease (AMD) is the most frequent cause for blindness over 65 years in the developed countries. The incidence of this pathology (Framingham study) is: 2% (52-64 old), 11 %(65-74 old), 28%(>75 old). Our paper wants to review the therapeutic armamentarium during the last twenty years for treating Wet AMD--the most serious form of this disease.
