Abstract. Purpose:To report the outcome after 6 months of photodynamic therapy with verteporfin for age-related macular degeneration with subfoveal neovascularization. Cases and Method:This retrospective study was made on 49 eyes of 45 patients who received photodynamic therapy and who could be followed up for 6 months or longer. The series comprised 27 male and 22 female eyes. The age averaged 73±10 years. One eye had a history of macular transposition surgery. Visual acuity was evaluated in terms of logMAR. Results:Visual acuity 6 months after treatment improved by 2 line or more in 23 eyes(47%), remained unchanged in 21 eyes(41%), and deteriorated in 5 eyes(10%). Conclusion:Changes in visual acuity 6 months after photodynamic therapy for age-related macular degeneration were similar to those reported by others in Japan.
