Pequenos acúmulos amarelos ou brancos familiares de material extracelular que se acumulam entre a membrana de Bruch e o epitélio pigmentar da retina ocular. A presença de algumas drusas pequenas ("duras") é normal com o avanço da idade, e a maioria das pessoas com mais de 40 anos tem algumas drusas duras. No entanto, a presença de drusas maiores e mais numerosas na mácula é um sinal precoce comum de degeneração macular relacionada à idade (DMRI). | |||
