Relationship between Oral Metformin Use and Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Abstract

In a cross-sectional retrospective study of 3120 diabetic patients aged ≥ 60 years, those taking metformin were less likely to have age-related macular degeneration compared with those not taking the drug (OR 0.70, 95%CI 0.55-0.88).
