Abstract
Drusen size and drusen type as classified by OCT morphologic characteristics are significantly different in patients with or without VF defects. Confluent, large, and autofluorescent drusen were more commonly found in patients with VF defects. These findings may assist in clarifying how drusen give rise to visual loss, which is currently not known.
