This is an open-label study of 100 treatment-naïve (study eye only) AMD patients treated on-label with intravitreally administered Lucentis. Consented, enrolled subjects will receive multiple open-label intravitreal injections of 0.5 mg ranibizumab administered monthly for the first 4 months, and then as needed for a total duration of 12 months. Their blood will be genotyped and sequenced for various SNPs on VEGF and HTRA1.
