This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of high-dose aflibercept therapy for neovascular age-related macular degeneration and to analyze cytokine concentrations in aqueous humor obtained at the initiation of treatment. By examining their associations with clinical outcomes such as visual acuity, central retinal thickness, and lesion size, the study seeks to identify potential prognostic biomarkers. In addition, by comparing aqueous humor cytokine profiles between nAMD eyes and control eyes undergoing cataract surgery, the study aims to identify disease-specific cytokine alterations.
Efficacy
Change in best-corrected visual acuity from baseline at week 48
