PURPOSE: To improve visual function by retinal pig, ment epithelial (RPE) cell transplantation and systemic immunosuppression at the time of surgical removal of subfoveal choroidal neovascularization in exudative agerelated macular degeneration (AMD).center dot DESIGN: An interventional case series of RPE transplantation in exudative AMD.center dot METHODS: Twelve patients (one eye only) underwent subfoveal membranectomy with transplantation of a sheet of adult human allogeneic RPE cells at a single institution and were followed for one year.
