Blocking Ocular Sympathetic Activity Inhibits Choroidal Neovascularization

Blocking Ocular Sympathetic Activity Inhibits Choroidal Neovascularization

Purpose: To investigate how modulating ocular sympathetic activity affects progression of choroidal neovascularization (CNV), a hallmark feature of wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD).Methods: In the first of two studies, Brown Norway rats underwent laser-induced CNV and were assigned to one...
