Baseline Examination

The Beaver Dam Eye Study was a population-based cohort study designed to collect information on the prevalence and incidence of age-related cataract, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. The results of the baseline examination for macular degeneration are reported in this chapter. One or more drusen were present in the macular area of at least one eye in 95% of the population. Signs of age-related maculopathy were common in people seventy-five years of age or older. Women of this age group had an incidence of exudative macular degeneration two to three times higher than their male counterparts. This study was an early indication that age-related macular degeneration was becoming a public health problem in an aging American population.

Therapeutic Concepts

Die altersbedingte Makuladegeneration (AMD) ist eine der häufigsten Ursachen für einen irreversiblen Visusverlust bei Patienten über 65 Jahre. Nahezu 30% der über 75-Jährigen sind von einer AMD betroffen. Trotz neuer Erkenntnisse in der Grundlagenforschung ist die Ätiologie, zu der auch genetische Faktoren gehören, noch nicht völlig geklärt. Aus diesem Grund sind die Behandlungsmöglichkeiten zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt noch limitiert, so dass man lediglich von Therapieansätzen sprechen kann. Die derzeit zur Verfügung stehenden Möglichkeiten wie medikamentöse, chirurgische und laser- und strahlentherapeutische Maßnahmen werden beschrieben.
