The Effect of Phacoemulsification on the Macular Changes in Patients with Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration
Sponsor: Assiut University
Summary
The macula has a very high concentration of photoreceptor cells - the cells that detect light. They send signals to the brain, which interprets them as images. The rest of the retina processes our peripheral, or side vision To explore whether cataract surgery evokes development or relapse of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients followed for a 1-year postoperative period
