Abstrakt:	Due to the significant medical and social importance of neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (wAMD), increasing the effectiveness of anti-VEGF therapy used to treat this disease is one of the high-priority problems in modern retinology. This article focuses on pathobiological aspects and clinical manifestations of incomplete responses to anti-VEGF therapy of wAMD, considers the proposed ways to improve the terminology and classification of responses to therapy, as well as the assessment of its correctness and effectiveness of the treatment. It also discusses the available ways to optimize anti-VEGF therapy and define the criteria of its termination in cases when the treatment proves to be futile.
