Summary

This completed study observed 572 patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration or diabetic macular edema who were already receiving brolucizumab injections. Researchers collected routine medical data to see how well the drug resolved fluid in the eye and improved vision in real-world settings. The study did not impose a strict treatment schedule, reflecting actual clinical practice.
