| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The intra-choroidal structures were analysed with the images taken by a swept-sourde optical coherence tomography . It is known that both aging and myopic shift induce the decreased choroidal thickness, but the changes in intra-choroidal sturctures appeared to be different between the two conditions. After aflibercept therapy for neovascular age-related macular degeneration, not only the choroidal thickness, but also the intra-choroidal structures appeared to be significantly altered.
