Genetic screening for neovascular AMD: cost effective…not so quick.

Abstract

The following is a response to Brown and colleagues (Int J Retin Vitr 1:19, 2015), who analyzed the cost effectiveness of genetic screening for neovascular AMD in Category 3 (intermediate). As explained in this letter, it is premature to propose that genetic screening is cost effective in this setting. A simple clinical history and macular exam is highly cost effective and can easily guide screening strategies.
