Wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) develops when abnormal blood vessels grow into the macula. These leak blood or fluid which leads to scarring of the macula and rapid loss of central vision. 10, record 2, English, - wet%20age%2Drelated%20macular%20degeneration

La DMLA humide progresse beaucoup plus rapidement [que la dégénérescence maculaire sèche liée à l’âge.] Parallèlement à l’accumulation des druses, de nouveaux vaisseaux sanguins anormaux se forment sous la rétine, au niveau de la macula. Ces vaisseaux très fragiles et poreux laissent s’échapper du sang et du liquide qui provoquent la formation d’un œdème maculaire. 7, record 2, French, - d%C3%A9g%C3%A9n%C3%A9rescence%20maculaire%20humide%20li%C3%A9e%20%C3%A0%20l%26rsquo%3B%C3%A2ge
