AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION (LITERATURE REVIEW)
Abstract
Age–related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive disease that steadily leads to blindness and manifests itself as a chronic degenerative process in the pigment epithelium, Bruch's membrane and choriocapillary layer of the macular zone of the retina. Spectral optical coherence tomography (SOCT) is the most informative method of morphometric examination in patients with retinal diseases. Among the functional ones, static automatic perimetry (SAP) is the most informative, which makes it possible to evaluate the features of changes in the central field of vision, indicating the quantitative and percentage ratio of absolute and relative changes.
