    Commissioned and Funded by: Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) through the Drug Safety and Effectiveness Network (DSEN)

    • Our results can be used by patients and their healthcare providers, as well as policy-makers to guide decision-making regarding use of the anti-VEGF agents
    • Anti-VEGF agents are effective for improving vision gain, mean BCVA, and reducing vision loss for patients with wet AMD
    • Compared to placebo, we did not observe an association between their use and increased adverse events or mortality
