IMPORTANCE Loss to follow-up (LTFU) after anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) injections increases the risk of vision loss among patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). OBJECTIVE To report rates of LTFU among patients with nAMD after anti-VEGF injections and to identify risk factors associated with LTFU in this population. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This retrospective cohort study of data from 9007 patients who received anti-VEGF injections for treatment of nAMD was performed at an urban, private retina practice with multiple locations from April 1, 2012, to January 12, 2016. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Rates of LTFU after anti-VEGF injections. Loss to follow-up was defined as receipt of 1 or more injections with no subsequent follow-up visit within 12 months. RESULTS Among the 9007 patients (mean [SD] age, 81.2 [8.8] years; 5917 [65.7%] female; 7905 [87.8%] white), 2003 (22.2%) were LTFU. Odds of LTFU were greater among patients 81 to 85 years of age (odds ratio [OR], 1.58; 95% CI, 1.38-1.82; P < .001), 86 to 90 years of age (OR, 2.29; 95% CI, 2.00-2.62; P < .001), and more than 90 years of age (OR, 3.31; 95% CI, 2.83-3.86; P < .001) compared with patients 80 years of age and younger. Odds of LTFU among African American patients (OR, 1.47; 95% CI, 1.00-2.16; P = .05), Asian patients (OR, 2.63; 95% CI, 1.71-4.03; P < .001), patients of other race (OR, 3.07; 95% CI, 1.38-6.82; P = .006), and patients of unreported race (OR, 2.29; 95% CI, 1.96-2.68; P < .001) were greater than odds of LTFU among white patients. Odds of LTFU were greater among patients with regional adjusted gross income of $50 000 or less (OR, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.30-1.79; P < .001), $51 000 to $75 000 (OR, 1.35; 95% CI, 1.17-1.56; P < .001), and $76 000 to $100 000 (OR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.08-1.50; P = .004) compared with patients with incomes greater than $100 000. Odds of LTFU for patients living 21 to 30 miles (OR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.05-1.69; P = .02) and more than 30 miles (OR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.28-1.88; P < .001) from clinic were greater compared with patients who lived 10 miles or less from the clinic. Odds of LTFU were greater among patients who received unilateral injections (OR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.28-1.61; P < .001) than among patients who received bilateral injections. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE We found a high rate of LTFU after anti-VEGF injections among patients with nAMD and identified multiple risk factors associated with LTFU among this population. Although our results may not be generalizable, data on LTFU in a clinical practice setting are needed to understand the scope of the problem so that interventions may be designed to improve outcomes.
