This second edition focuses on the pathophysiology and the epidemiology of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the clinical features and management of dry and wet AMD, imaging techniques, and medical therapy for both non-neovascular AMD and neovascular AMD. It describes both clinically validated and experimental therapies as well as rehabilitation technology, and presents strategies to prevent the progression of non-exudative AMD. Results from current clinical trials are also included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNew chapters in this edition cover:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenetics and treatment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxidative stress and its relation to the pathophysiology of AMD and CNV (choroidal neovascularization—a common symptom of wet AMD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolypoidal choroidal vasculopathy \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicroperimetry and psychophysical testing and ways to track geographic atrophy progression \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-VEGF pathways \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetinal stem cells \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Professor Lim has brought us up to the moment.
