RETINAL DEGENERATION

This study tests a new treatment called OpCT-001 for people with inherited eye diseases that damage the retina, such as retinitis pigmentosa. The treatment involves injecting special photoreceptor cells, made from stem cells, into the back of the eye to replace lost cells. The tr…

This study tests whether dapagliflozin, a drug used for diabetes, can slow the progression of geographic atrophy—an advanced form of dry age-related macular degeneration that causes blind spots. About 70 adults aged 50 and older with this condition will take the drug for 12 month…

This study collects skin, hair, blood, urine, or saliva samples from people with certain eye diseases (like macular degeneration) and from healthy volunteers. Researchers will turn these samples into stem cells in the lab to study how the diseases develop and to test potential ne…

This study looks at how well people with retinal diseases like retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt's disease see in the dark. Researchers want to find out if measuring dark adaptation can help detect and track these conditions. Healthy volunteers and people with retinal disease ag…

This study uses special cameras to take ultra-detailed pictures of the back of the eye in people with retinal diseases like macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. Researchers aim to develop new ways to diagnose and track these conditions by measuring cell density and func…

This study tests a high-resolution imaging system to see tiny structures in the eye that routine tools cannot detect. Researchers will scan 1,200 people with various eye conditions and healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand diseases like glaucoma, diabetes, and reti…
