Paracentral Acute Middle Maculopathy and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease, Stroke, and Death: A Longitudinal Study
Young individuals with iPAMM have a higher prevalence of predisposing factors compared to those presenting with combined PAMM + RVD. Older patients with iPAMM had a higher risk of CVE than those with PAMM + RVD, especially in the peri-onset timeframe. This suggests the need for a prompt cardiovascular assessment to rule out systemic etiologies and optimize cardiovascular risk factors, in addition to ongoing ophthalmology input.
