Eye doctors test two ways to stop Vision-Threatening bleeds

NCT ID NCT02557451

Summary

This study compared two different treatment approaches for a serious complication of age-related macular degeneration (AMD): sudden bleeding under the center of the retina. It involved 91 patients who experienced this type of eye bleed. Researchers randomly assigned patients to either have surgery followed by medication injections, or to receive a gas injection followed by the same medication, to see which approach led to better vision recovery and quality of life.
