Overview
Brief Summary
To describe the use of intravitreal aflibercept in routine clinical practice and to describe follow-up as well as treatment patterns in patients with wAMD or DME in routine clinical practice in Canada for a study population of treatment naive patients and those who have received prior therapy (anti-VEGF injections, laser, steroids, etc).
Investigators
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Age: \>= 18 years of age
- •Male or female
- •Patients with wet AMD (wet age-related macular degeneration) or Diabetic macular edema (DME) who will be treated by intravitreal aflibercept according to the Canadian Product monograph recommendations and routine clinical practice.
- •Decision to treat with intravitreal aflibercept prior to patient enrolment as per the physician's routine clinical practice.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Patients participating in an investigational program with interventions outside of routine clinical practice.
- •Patients currently being treated with intravitreal aflibercept. This study will only include patients new to intravitreal aflibercept, both naïve and previously treated with other anti-VEGF therapies.
- •Patients who are hypersensitive to this drug, to any ingredient in the formulation, or to any component of the container.
- •Patients who are hypersensitive to this drug, to any ingredient in the formulation, or to any component of the container.
- •Ocular or peri-ocular infection
- •Active intraocular inflammation
- •Scar, fibrosis, or atrophy involving the center of the fovea in the study eye.
- •Any concomitant therapy with another agent to treat wet AMD or DME in the study eye.
