NCT ID NCT03803631

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested a new, non-invasive eye scan called OCT angiography to see if it can better detect changes in abnormal blood vessels in people with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who are being treated with Eylea. Researchers followed 49 patients to compare the new scan with standard imaging. The goal was to find early signs that the disease might be coming back, which could help doctors adjust treatment sooner.
