Quantitative Analysis of Drusen in South Korean Patients: A 36-Month Follow-Up Study
Drusen in South Korean patients demonstrated dynamic morphological remodeling over time. Drusen regression was not a benign phenomenon but rather a potential high-risk marker for progression to advanced AMD. These findings highlight the importance of population-specific, quantitative SD-OCT monitoring for early risk stratification in East Asian eyes.
