Abstract
Purpose. Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) resulting in decreased central vision severely impairs affected individuals. Current standard treatment is an intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy (ranibizumab), but responses to treatment show large variability. Genetic factors that influence AMD and that affect the outcome of ranibizumab treatment were sought within a sample of Swiss patients. Methods. Changes in visual acuity (VA) after initiation of anti-VEGF treatment were observed during 12 months, and percentiles of VA were
