However, the vision prognosis of this treatment is not as satisfactory as anti-VEGF Abutaman.
- the therapeutic agent of the present invention is a treatment aiming at a better visual prognosis, and it is expected to be a great gospel for an age-related macular degeneration patient who cannot expect a sufficient improvement in visual acuity with the existing treatment.
