Can your diet outsmart your genes for eye health?

NCT ID NCT05735730

Summary

This study aims to understand how factors like diet, lifestyle, and medications interact with a person's genetics to influence their risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss. Researchers are following 1,800 adults in Portugal, collecting health data, performing eye exams, and analyzing genetic information from blood samples. The goal is to learn if healthy habits can modify genetic risk, which could help guide future prevention strategies.
