Computational modeling of retinal hypoxia and photoreceptor degeneration in patients with age-related macular degeneration

Although drusen have long been acknowledged as a primary hallmark of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) their role in the disease remains unclear. We hypothesize that drusen accumulation increases the barrier to metabolite transport ultimately resulting in photoreceptor cell death. To invest...
