Ellipsoid zone integrity affects visual acuity outcomes in wet AMD

NEW YORK — Ellipsoid zone integrity is a major driver of visual acuity outcomes in eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration without intraretinal fluid.
“As we know, in eyes with neovascular AMD, the goals for fluid management continue to be a little bit controversial. The presence of intraretinal fluid throughout anti-VEGF treatment has been associated with poorer visual acuity outcomes,” Justis P. Ehlers, MD, FASRS, said at the American Society of Retina Specialists annual meeting. “But somewhat surprisingly, we’ve seen in multiple studies,
