Wet macular degeneration is a chronic eye disorder that causes blurred vision or a blind spot in your visual field. It's generally caused by abnormal blood vessels that leak fluid or blood into the macula (MAK-u-luh). The macula is in the part of the retina responsible for central vision.Dec 11, 2020

Neovascular AMD is an advanced form of macular degeneration that historically has accounted for the majority of vision loss related to AMD. The presence of choroidal neovascular membrane (CNV) formation is the hallmark feature of neovascular AMD.
There are two basic types of macular degeneration: “wet” and “dry.” Approximately 10-15% of the cases of macular degeneration are the “wet” (exudative) type. In the “wet” type of macular degeneration, abnormal blood vessels (known as choroidal neovascularization or CNV) grow under the retina and macula.
The most common treatment doctors use to slow vision loss from wet AMD is called anti-VEGF injections. These medicines help stop bleeding and leaking from blood vessels in the back of your eye. Most people with wet AMD will get anti-VEGF injections as their only treatment.Jun 22, 2021

But for approximately 10 to 15 percent of people with dry AMD, it progresses to wet AMD, which is called “wet” because the abnormal blood vessels that form beneath the retina begin to leak, according to the American Macular Degeneration Foundation (AMDF).Feb 12, 2020
People with dry AMD will exhibit changes in the cell layer underneath the retina. They will also likely have drusen deposits in the eye and may experience damage to the retina itself. People with wet AMD may have fluid buildup around the retina as well as waste deposits around the macula.Feb 27, 2022
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a disease that affects a person's central vision. AMD can result in severe loss of central vision, but people rarely go blind from it. Risk factors for AMD include being 50 and older, smoking, having high blood pressure and eating a diet high in saturated fat.
