Abstract

The article reflects on the anastomosis of retinal vessels to lesions of choroidal neovascularization, especially in age-related macular degeneration. It argues that retinal vessels may connect to subretinal neovascularization rather than to neovascularization beneath the retinal pigment epithelium. It offers information on the term retinal angiomatous proliferans.
