Abstract

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has emerged as a key mediator of angiogenesis and macular edema in ocular diseases such as neovascular macular degeneration, vein occlusions, and diabetic retinopathy.^1,2 Therapies to neutralize VEGFs action in ocular diseases have been used to successfully combat VEGFs pathogenic role in the eye.
