Figure 4 Frequency of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) stages by age groups in the SHIP-TREND-1 cohort. Most subjects included in this analysis were 40–60 years old. Although this is a rather young study population, the fact that many initial changes in the form of retinal pigment epithelial changes or small drusen were nevertheless detectable should be noted and shows the need for earlier examination.
