Abstract

•Choroid and choriocapillaris are potential important targets of therapy early in AMD.•Macular vasculature pathology, like choriocapillaris flow deficits, can be measured using OCT-A.•Subretinal drusenoid deposits result from biogenesis pathways involved in lipid homeostasis.•How to target (over- or under-express) the HtrA1 gene associated with AMD is controversial.•Optimal gene therapies for AMD depend on retinal delivery site and specificity to retinal cell.
