    AbstractThe treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) had been revolutionized by the use of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs: bevacizumab and ranibizumab. With the introduction of a third anti-VEGF drug, aflibercept, ophthalmologists have several options to choose from, as well as various treatment regimens they can follow. In this Interview, Jeffrey S. Heier, MD, of Ophthalmic Consultants of Boston, Massachusetts, discusses his approaches to managing the treatment of patients with AMD and providing them with individualized care.Copyright © 2013 American Academy of Ophthalmology.
