PV and AMD?

I've had PV since 2015 and have been on Jakafi for 18 months. I've recently been diagnosed with age-related macular degeneration and have been treated with intravitreous avastin. I've seen some papers suggesting that AMD is more common for people with MPNs. Has anyone else had this experience?
