Main Objective: - to demonstrate the efficacy of ranibizumab in patients with retinal pigment epithelial detachment secondary to AMD;Secondary Objective: - to evaluate the safety of ranibizumab in patients with retinal pigment epithelial detachment secondary to AMD<br>- to evaluate the effect of ranibizumab on the change in visual function as assessed by the mean change in BCVA from Baseline <br>- to evaluate the effect of ranibizumab on retinal structure as assessed by mean and percent change in retinal thickness and height of PED, as measured by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography<br>- to evaluate the effect of ranibizumab on central visual field and stability of fixation as determined by NIDEK MP-1 microperimetry<br>- to evaluate the effect of ranibizumab as assessed by the incidence of fluorescein leakage and changes in autofluorescence<br>;Primary end point(s): -Best-corrected visual acuity (ETDRS-charts)<br>-PED height (OCT)<br>
