Efficacy of liposome-bound amphotericin B for the treatment of experimental fungal endophthalmitis in rabbits.

abstract：PURPOSE:The role of macular pigment (MP) in age-related maculopathy (ARM) is still not clearly understood. Recent studies have reported on variations in the spatial distribution of MP optical density (MPOD) including a secondary peak ("ring") in the slope of the MPOD profile. The authors investigated in a cross-section...
