Abstract
Unlike typical AMD, PCV progresses without typical features such as drusen or pigmentary abnormality. Baseline AREDS score was less likely to predict progression of the fellow eye to advanced-stage disease in PCV compared with typical AMD. Therefore, the globally recognized risk-scoring AREDS system may not be applicable in Asia, where PCV is a prevalent subtype of AMD.
