Summary

The main objective is to determine the efficacy of intravitreal administration of Ranibizumab combined with intravitreous injection of expansile gas and induction of posterior vitreous detachment on best-corrected visual acuity and ocular coherence tomography (OCT) macular thickness in subjects with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with posterior vitreomacular adhesion (VMA).

Secondary objectives are to assess the safety and tolerability of the intravitreal administration of Ranibizumab combined with intravitreous injection of expansile gas.
