E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation |
E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
Retinal angiomatous proliferation secondary to wet age related macular degeneration. |
Zmnožení cév uvnitř sítnice způsobené „vlhkou“ formou věkem podmíněné makulární degenerace (VPMD). |
|
E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
Wet form of age-related damage of the macula with abnormal proliferation of retinal blood vessels (associated with blood leakage as well as epithelial detachments). |
Při vlhké formě VPMD se v centrální oblasti sítnice (zvané makula, žlutá skvrna) abnormálně vytvářejí krevní cévy, které jsou slabé a prosakují, což způsobuje jizvení poškozující sítnici. |
