Senile macular degeneration: a preliminary study

W V Delaney Jr et al. Ann Ophthalmol. 1982 Jan.

Abstract

Fifty patients with senile macular degeneration and 50 age-sex-matched control patients were studied retrospectively by multiple regression analysis. The patients with senile macular degeneration more often had hyperopia by a 2.4:1 ratio and when receiving treatment for hypertension, in a 6.1:1 ratio. The significance of these findings needs prospective study.
