Abstract
Visible on OCT, the ELM descent is a histopathologic atrophy border supporting new terminology of cRORA, whereas hypertransmission reveals RPE degeneration. RPE-BLamD thickening across the macula, toward the atrophy and over time is confirmed. The presence of gliosis and thick RPE-BLamD suggests that macular atrophy is a late stage in disease progression, encouraging anatomic endpoints at earlier AMD stages than atrophy enlargement.
