Abstract
The treatment of age-related macular degeneration with anti-VEGF medications has resulted not only in significant improvements in eye treatment but also in rising costs of ophthalmological therapy. This new treatment has been rapidly introduced into daily practice in Germany with its social security healthcare system and also in Great Britain with its National Health Service. In both countries the most prevalent treatment scheme currently includes three baseline injections of ranibizumab followed by additional injections depending on persisting disease activity.Entities:
