The RBCM EPA and EPA+DHA, as long-term biomarkers of n-3 dietary PUFA status, were associated strongly with neovascular AMD and may represent an objective marker identifying subjects at high risk for neovascular AMD, who may most benefit from nutritional interventions. (http://www.controlled-trials.com/isrctn number, ISRCTN98246501).

In our series of myopic choroidal neovascularization, intravitreal injections of ranibizumab showed visual acuity improvement and retinal thickness reduction. Further prospective multicentric clinical trials are needed to evaluate the safety and the efficacy of this treatment.
