All ReportsDatamonitor Healthcare I&I: Retinal Disorders Disease Coverage
October 13, 2017
A range of disorders, some of which share similar underlying pathologies, can affect the retina and lead to progressively worsening vision
and
eventual blindness. The retina is the layer of light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye that converts light into impulses to the brain via the
optic nerve. A common feature of certain retinal disorders is abnormal growth of blood vessels in the macula, which can be effectively
treated
by drugs targeting vascular endothelial growth factor. These discrete indications are wet age-related macular degeneration, diabetic
retinopathy with and without diabetic macular edema, and macular edema from retinal vein occlusion.
