Zusammenfassung
Die altersbedingte Makuladegeneration (AMD) ist eine Erkrankung der Netzhaut des Auges, die zu einem Funktionsverlust des Sehens bis hin zur Blindheit führen kann. Es gibt nur wenige therapeutische Ansätze (z. B. photodynamische Therapie, Biologicals), die aufwändig und teuer sind. Vor einigen Jahren konnte der Nutzen von Antioxidanzien bewiesen werden, wobei den Carotinoiden Lutein und Zeaxanthin eine besondere Bedeutung zukommt. Mittlerweile gibt es aber auch epidemiologische und interventionelle Studien zu Omega-3-Fettsäuren in der Prävention und Therapie der AMD.
