The goal of this pilot study is to validate the use of the combination of Lucentis (ranibizumab) and Visudyne (verteporfin) in the treatment of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and to explore the use of a volumetric analysis of the CNV lesion to determine disease activity, response to therapy, and as a tool for determining the need for retreatment.
