Summary of disease assessment criteria identified in proactive treatment regimen in randomised controlled trials of neovascular age-related macular degeneration

Study Type of disease assessment criteria used to modify treatment interval
OCT change in morphology: qualitative (e.g. increase in IRF) New haemorrhage due to nAMD Visual acuity reduction only Increase in lesion size on FFA or other retinal imaging modality OCT change in morphology with visual acuity reduction OCT thickness increase only Both visual acuity reduction and CST thickness increase
