In this report the data was obtained from a prospective case-control study with a sample size of sixteen patients with exudative age related macular degeneration (AMD) due to choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and eighteen patients with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) and fifty controls (cataract patients without any other ocular diseases). Luminex bead based multiplex assay with a panel of 41 analytes was used to study the cytokine levels in plasma and aqueous humor.
