First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at what people with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) know about their disease and what they need to manage it better. Researchers will survey and interview 118 patients to understand their knowledge, daily challenges, and support needs. The goal is to use this information to create a patient education program that helps people take a more active role in their eye care.
