Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Although the safety and efficacy of bevacizumab has been established in several phase 3 trials, there is only little documented about the long-term safety and efficacy in the 'real-world practice' in large populations from different regions.

Therefore the investigators evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of intravitreal treatment with bevacizumab by registration of best corrected visual acuity, side-effects and central retinal thickness as measured with the ocular coherence tomography if available. This will allow the investigators to compare the results of their centre with the results of several phase 3 trials from the literature and will guide improvements in their treatment protocols.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Age ≥ 18 years of either gender
2. Written informed consent must be obtained before any intravitreal injection of bevacizumab is performed
3. Visual impairment predominantly due to abnormal new vessel ingrowth and/or macular edema. The presence of fluid (intraretinal, subretinal or sub-RPE) detected clinically or on the ocular coherence tomography.

If both eyes are eligible for the study, both eyes can be included in the study.

Exclusion Criteria

2. Women of child bearing potential must be practicing effective contraception implemented during the trial and for at least 28 days following the last dose of study medication
3. Tromboembolic event (CVA or transient ischemic attack, AMI) less than 3 months prior to the intravitreal injection of bevacizumab
4. History of hypersensitivity for bevacizumab.
