Abstract

Age-related macular degeneration is the third leading cause of blindness worldwide after cataracts and glaucoma. We described our recent surgical experience in managing the smaller-incision, new-generation, implantable, miniature telescope that has been designed to enlarge retinal images of the central visual field implanted monocularly in the capsular bag after lens extraction.
