Abstract
OCT angiography provides a unique opportunity to study the morphology of occult type 1 neovascular membranes in AMD and allows precise structural and vascular assessment noninvasively. We identified a large mature neovascular complex in approximately 75% of eyes, typically consisting of a feeder vessel and large branching vessels resistant to anti-VEGF therapy. OCT angiography may better guide evaluation and treatment of neovascular AMD, and may contribute to the development of improved therapies.
