Abstract. Purpose:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of intravitreal injection of aflibercept(IVA)for neovascular age-related macular degeneration(AMD). Cases and Method:Sixty-four eyes of 64 patients with neovascular AMD(16 eyes of typical AMD, 44 eyes of polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy and 4 eyes of retinal angiomatous proliferation)who underwent IVA and could be followed up for 6 months or longer, were enrolled. Averaged age was 75.0±8.3 years. All eyes underwent IVA in the PRN regimen, BCVA and central retinal thickness(CRT)on optical coherence tomography were measured periodically. Results:The mean BCVA at baseline was 0.44±0.41 and the BCVA at month 6 was 0.38±0.38, significantly improved compared with baseline(p<0.01). BCVA was improved by 0.3 or more logMAR units in 4 eyes(6%), in 59 eyes(92%)BCVA was unchanged and one eye deteriorated. Mean CRT significantly decreased from 298±83μm at baseline to 244±59μm at month 6(p<0.01). The mean number of IVA was 2.4 times. Conclusion:IVA in patients with neovascular AMD improved visual acuity and CRT.
