Zusammenfassung

Im menschlichen Auge finden sich mit dem Alter vielfältige degenerative Veränderungen. Einige dieser strukturellen und funktionellen Veränderungen sowie physikalische und diätetische Einflüsse wurden als mögliche pathophysiologische Faktoren bei der Entstehung der altersabhängigen Makuladegeneration diskutiert. Obgleich sich viele der Veränderungen in nahezu jedem alternden Auge finden, entwickelt dennoch nur ein Teil der betroffenen Altersgruppe visusvermindernde Läsionen. Daher spielen offensichtlich andere individuelle Faktoren wie eine genetische Prädisposition oder spezifische Umwelteinflüsse eine Rolle.
