Incidence and Risk Factors of Reticular Pseudodrusen Using Multimodal Imaging.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Although retinal multimodal imaging is needed for diagnosing reticular pseudodrusen (RPD), the incidence of RPD in the general population typically has been assessed only using fundus photographs, which may underestimate their incidence.

Objectives

To describe the incidence of RPD using retinal color photographs, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography scans, fundus autofluorescence, and near-infrared reflectance images among individuals 77 years of age or older and to analyze the associated risk factors of RPD.

Design, setting, and participants

The ALIENOR (Antioxydants, Lipides Essentiels, Nutrition et Maladies Oculaires) Study is a cohort of French individuals 77 years of age or older. Data for this study were collected between February 22, 2011, an
