ABSTRACT
Objective:
To identify the relationship of reticular pseudodrusen with age-related macular degeneration using tomographic imaging.
Methods:
An observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted in patients with reticular pseudodrusen seen in retina consultation who underwent spectral optical coherence tomography from January 2009 to December 2014 at the Cuban Institute of Ophthalmology “Ramón Pando Ferrer”. The population consisted of 69 patients aged 55 years and older with reticular pseudodrusen in these images.
Results:
Pseudodrusen predominated in patients between 70 and 79 years of age (49.3 %). The female gender was the most numerous with 76.8 %. Out of the 122 eyes with pseudodrusen, 86 showed some sign of age-related macular degeneration (70.5 %). Out of the latter, 58.1 % had the advanced form. Type II neovascular membrane was the most frequent with 58.0 %. Choroidal thickness was estimated decreased in 77.9 % of cases.
Conclusions:
Reticular pseudodrusen maintain a direct relationship with age-related macular degeneration and influence its progression.
