VIDEO: Visual acuity in wet AMD maintained or improved after switch to brolucizumab
In this Healio Video Perspective, Mathew W. MacCumber, MD, PhD, discusses his poster presentation on brolucizumab treatment from the Retina Society meeting.
The real-world study found that more than 85% of eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration treated with brolucizumab after previous anti-VEGF treatment experienced stable or improved visual acuity at 12 months.
“I think this data is important because it will give retina specialists another agent that they can use in their armamentarium to treat neovascular age-related macular degeneration,” MacCumber said.
