Introduction
To determine the frequency and possible correlation between peripheral retinal lesions and AMD. Material and methods 92 patients (50-89 years old), with AMD were evaluated by indirect ophthalmoscopy and biomicroscopy with triple mirror. The control group consisted of 92 patients without any lesions in macula and other retinal changes. Results At the AMD patients the peripheral benign lesions were found more frequent than in control group (p = 0.003, especially: drusen (p = 0.026), atrophy (p = 0.011), and chorioretinal degeneration (p = 0.001). Conclusions The presence of peripheral retinal lesions may correlate with AMD evaluation. keywords:
