We found associations with nvAMD for <i>CFHY402H</i> variant (rs1061170) (OR=1.99, 95% CI 1.67 to 2.37, P=10<sup>-6</sup>), <i>ARMS2</i> (rs10490924) (OR=2.94, 95% CI 2.45 to 3.52, P=10<sup>-9</sup>), <i>C2</i> (rs547154) (OR=0.67, 95% CI 0.53 to 0.85, P=0.01), <i>ABCA1</i> (rs1883025) (OR=0.77, 95% CI 0.65 to 0.92, P=0.04) and an SNP near <i>VEGFA</i> (rs4711751) (OR=0.64, 95% CI 0.54 to 0.77, P=10<sup>-3</sup>).
No association was found to support the role for the rs833069, rs943080 and rs4711751 variants of or near VEGFA gene in susceptibility to either PCV or neovascular AMD in Han Chinese population.
rs1999930 and rs4711751 have recently been identified as novel variants associated with advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in populations of European ancestry.
