NCT ID NCT07556406

First seen May 05, 2026 · Last updated May 06, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at two imaging techniques—central microperimetry and radial OCT—to see if they can better measure how geographic atrophy (a form of advanced age-related macular degeneration) progresses toward the center of the retina. Researchers will follow 80 adults aged 55 and older who either have geographic atrophy or are at risk. The goal is to improve monitoring of this blinding condition.
