What are the types of senile macular degeneration ?
There are two types:
1. Atrophic or 'dry' type: involving the choriocapillaries, retinal pigment epithelium and the rods and cones. There is no leakage of blood or serum.
2. Neovascular exudative or 'wet' type: there is haemorrhagic or serous detachment of the retinal pigment epithelium and choroidal neovascularization resulting in leakage and fibrovascular scarring.
