Summary

The addition of an anti-inflammatory agent could be a valid option for controlling choroidal neovascularization, as simply inhibiting VEGF addresses neither the multifactorial pathogenesis of choroidal neovascularization nor the underlying cause of VEGF production.

Conditions

Interventions
