Cited in Scopus: 0Micrometer-sized spherules formed of hydroxyapatite or whitlockite were identified within extracellular deposits that accumulate in the space between the basal lamina (BL) of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and the inner collagenous layer of Bruch’s membrane (sub-RPE–BL space). This investigation aimed to characterize the morphologic features, structure, and distribution of these spherules in aged human eyes with and without clinical indications of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
