Summary
This study tests a new treatment called OpRegen, made from stem cells, for people with advanced dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The cells are placed under the retina to replace damaged cells and slow disease progression. The trial involves 24 adults aged 50 and older with severe vision loss. The main goal is to check safety, but researchers will also see if the treatment helps preserve or improve eyesight.
