To assess the value of a monthly injection of Lucentis ® until stable visual acuity (VA) is obtained for three consecutive months without exudation in patients with neovascular age macular degeneration (AMD). Methods. Prospective, single-center, non-controlled trial including naïve AMD patients with neovascularization. An assessment of VA and a spectral domain optical coherence tomogra- phy (SD-OCT) were performed at baseline and every month. Monthly injections of Lucentis ® were performed over three months. The monthly injections were then continued until three consecutive stable VA results were obtained with no signs of exudation. Corresponding author.
