macular degeneration/tyrosine

Deep retinal capillary ischemia (DRCI) is a recently described entity in patients presenting with an acute-onset paracentral scotoma. Subclinical macular lesions of DRCI were formerly best visualized on near-infrared reflectance imaging. The development of optical coherence tomography angiography

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD) is the most common cause of blindness in the adult population of the Western World. It affects the macula - the region of the retina most rich in photoreceptors and responsible for central vision. Despite this manifest importance, the ethiology of ARMD remains

Introduction: The endothelial growth factor (VEGF), was identified for the first time in the liquid of ascitis in Guinean pigs (6,7). It is a dimeric glycoprotein, naturally expressed in epithelial and tumor cells (1). It's over expression during retinal hypoxia (9), has been implied in the genesis
