Summary

This study will evaluate and compare two individualized ranibizumab treatment regimens in patients with neovascular (wet) AMD aiming to achieve and to maintain a maximum visual function benefit, while aiming to avoid unnecessary intravitreal injections. The results will be used to generate further recommendations on functional and anatomical monitoring of the disease and timing of treatment administration for patients with neovascular AMD. In this context, the study will investigate the utility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to aid retreatment decisions with ranibizumab.
