A study of cross-impact degree and morpho-functional correlation characteristics of primary open angle glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration was performed at 25 clinical sites in Russia and some CIS countries from January through May 2013. The study final protocol included 87 patients (108 eyes) divided into two groups, mean age of patients was 66.6 ± 5.65 years (min 55; max 81). Intragroup and intergroup variance analysis did not establish any significant difference in the macular area between the «glaucoma» group and the «glaucoma + AMD» group depending on the disease stage. The findings suggest that macular degeneration develops subsequent to a preexisting glaucomatous state.
