摘要：
PURPOSE: To assess associations between alcohol intake and age-related maculopathy. METHODS: A population-based study of 3,654 subjects identified cases of late age-related macular degeneration, early age-related maculopathy, and any large drusen (larger than 125 mu m) by examination and grading of retinal photographs. Interviewer-administered questionnaires provided data on alcohol intake. RESULTS: Neither total alcohol intake nor intake of beer specifically was significantly associated with age-related maculopathy, although a significant positive association was found between consumption of spirits and early age-related maculopathy. CONCLUSIONS: These findings provide little evidence that alcohol is causally associated with age-related maculopathy.
