Optimizing the Treatment Strategy for Age-related Macular Degeneration

The purpose of this study is to compare two different treatment protocols for wet macular degeneration; the new protocol called "Observe and Plan" against the current standard protocol "Treat and Extend". Studies suggest that patients achieve equally good visual acuity with fewer controls and that they are more satisfied with …

Words on the Brain: Can Reading Rehabilitation for Age-Related Vision Impairment Improve Cognitive Functioning?

Research into the mechanisms of these conditions has proposed that some of their causes (e.g., macular degeneration/glaucoma and Alzheimer's disease) could be symptoms of an underlying common cause, or may be equally linked to a multifactorial context in frailty and aging.

Study of the Discriminating Power of a Blood Biomarker for Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Content of the Retina for Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)

The relationship between lipid metabolism, microbiota and age-related macular degeneration should also provide a better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms that link diet, lipid metabolism and age-related macular degeneration.

Deciphering AMD by Deep Phenotyping and Machine Learning- Prospective Study - PINNACLE

We will conduct a prospective non-interventional study including 400 early AMD patients (=600 untreated early AMD eyes, including both unilateral (AREDS IV) and bilateral (AREDS II)) over 3 years to specifically investigate the morphological sequence of events preceding the conversion towards late AMD.
