Scientists track vision loss for a decade to find future cures
NCT ID NCT01736293
Summary
This study aims to understand how specific gene mutations cause inherited eye diseases like Stargardt disease, which lead to vision loss. Researchers will follow about 68 people with these mutations for 10 years, collecting blood and skin samples and tracking their eye health. The goal is to gather detailed information to help design future treatment trials, not to provide any treatment in this study.
