Research Advance about Poor Response to Anti-VEGF in Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Abstract
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) has become one of the main causes of vision damage in middle-aged and elderly people, Now, anti-vascular endothelial growth factors (anti-VEGF) therapy has achieved a milestone in the treatment of nAMD, However, in clinical practice, the phenomenon of poor or even non-response of anti-VEGF drugs is still found, even maximal anti-VEGF treatment to some patients. The research on poor response to anti-VEGF therapy is also a hot topic in recent years. This article gives a brief review on diagnostic factors, This article gives a brief review on diagnostic factors, pathogenesis, characteristics of lesions and drug factors for the poor response of anti-VEGF drugs to nAMD.
