Triple Combination Therapy of Choroidal Neovascularization in Exudative Age-related Macular Degeneration - a Cost Effect and Efficient Therapeutic Treatment
We propose to undertake a retrospective review of approximately 200 patients with a
diagnosis of exudative macular degeneration treated with triple combination therapy
(Bevacizumab, Dexamethasone and Photo-dynamic therapy) during the years of 2006 to 2010 at
The Retina Center and compare those results with an additional group of approximately 200
patients also treated with triple combination therapy and 20 mg of daily oral zeaxanthin.

Study parameters will include best corrected visual acuity, number of combination
treatments, reduction of central foveal thickness by OCT measurement and development of
exudative macular degeneration in the fellow eye. Follow up will include all patients with a
minimum of two years. Retrospective review of patient charts in the office of The Retina
Center.
