description AIM: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Mongolian medicine Mingmu-11 Pills combined with conbercept in the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration(wARMD).METHODS: Prospective study. All cases in this study were wARMD patients(72 cases, 72 eyes)admitted to the Ophthalmology Department of Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia University from November 2020 to December 2021. They were randomly divided into a combined treatment group and a control group, each with 36 eyes, and the control group received intravitreal injection of conbercept 0.05 mL for 3 consecutive months. The combined treatment group was given Mingmu-11 Pills twice a day after surgery, with 3 wk as a course of treatment, a total of 3 courses, and the control group was not given Mongolian medicine treatment. The best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), changes in central macular thickness(CMT)in the macular area, and changes in N1, P1 wave amplitude density and latency were observed after treatment in both groups.RESULTS:The BCVA(letter number)of the two groups were improved(P<0.05), and the CMT were decreased(P<0.05). The improvement of BCVA(letter number)in the combined treatment group was better than that in the control group at 3 mo(17.42±3.29 vs 14.61±3.14, P<0.001)and 5 mo(19.75±3.25 vs 16.81±2.77, P<0.001)after treatment; compared with the control group, CMT of the combined treatment group was thinner than that of the control group at 3 mo(304.58±53.34 vs 351.94±52.99 μm, P<0.001)and 5 mo(274.17±62.26 vs 321.78±63.22 μm, P<0.05)after treatment. The amplitude density of N1 and P1 wave in mfERG in both groups at 3 mo after treatment was higher than that before treatment(P<0.05), and r1-r3 latency of P1 wave was shorter than that before treatment(P<0.05), with no differences in the r1-r3 latency of N1 wave(P>0.05). In addition, the amplitude density of N1 and P1 wave in the combined treatment group was higher than that in the control group at 3 mo after treatment(P<0.05), the latency of P1 wave in the treatment group was significantly shorter than that in the control group(P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the latency of N1 wave between the two groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Mingmu-11 Pills combined with intravitreal injection of conbercept in the treatment of wARMD has obvious efficacy in improving vision and reducing macular edema.
