A multicentre, open-label, non-interventional study to observe treatment patterns in patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD), with visual impairment due to diabetic macular edema (DME), due to macular edema following retinal vein occlusion (RVO) or due to chorioidal neovascularization following pathologic myopia (mCNV) with repeated intravitreal injections of Lucentis® (Ranibizumab) including optional OCT monitoring over a 24 months observational period under real life conditions.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change from Baseline in Visual Acuity (VA) to Month 12 | Visual Acuity is measured either with ETDRS Scores, Snellen or decimal Scale according to routine clinical practice. Measurements are transferred to LogMAR for statistical analysis. LogMAR is defined as logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution. | Baseline, Month 12 |
| Change from Baseline in Visual Acuity (VA) to Month 24 | Visual Acuity is measured either with ETDRS Scores, Snellen or decimal Scale according to routine clinical practice. Measurements are transferred to LogMAR for statistical analysis. LogMAR is defined as logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution. | Baseline, Month 24 |
