Abstract
The p.Ala69Ser polymorphism of the ARMS2 gene is strongly associated with exudative AMD and PCV and is associated marginally with dry AMD. The polymorphisms in the LOXL1 gene did not predispose the individual to dry AMD and PCV. These findings suggest that there is a significant association between the ARMS2 gene and LOXL1 gene in exudative AMD.
