Ophthalmological findings determined by clinical examination or evaluation of fundus photographs to assess risk categories for late AMD
| Eyes | Findings | Score | Risk score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Right | 1) One or more large drusen (≥125 µm in the smallest diameter), a distance approximating the width of a major branch retinal vessel crossing the optic disc margin | No =0 Yes =1 |
1 |
| 2) Any definitive hyperpigmentary or hypopigmentary abnormalities associated with at least some drusen ≥63 µm in diameter, but not associated with known retinal disease entities or other reasons for such abnormalities | No =0 Yes =1 |
