Conclusion: One in four to one in five unilateral any AMD cases, and up to one in two unilateral late AMD cases, progressed to bilateral in 5 years. Known AMD risk factors, including smoking, are significantly associated with the progression to bilateral involvement.]]> Mon 09 Apr 2018 11:32:09 AEST ]]>
