Summary

This study tests whether injecting a special solution made from umbilical cord blood into the eye can slow or stop the worsening of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss. About 36 people aged 65 and older with dry AMD in both eyes will receive either the injection or a sham procedure. The goal is to see if the treatment can prevent the damaged area in the eye from growing larger.
