Summary
This trial compares imaging devices to determine which is most accurate at measuring vision loss caused by GA. Patients with GA may join to help improve diagnosis standards.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals over 50 with a specific eye condition called geographic atrophy due to age-related macular degeneration. Participants should have GA areas between 1.25 and 23 mm², which can be either subfoveal or extrafoveal. Those with neovascular AMD, other retinal diseases that could affect the study, or who cannot undergo eye imaging are not eligible.
What is being tested?
The trial aims to compare three different eye imaging systems: Spectralis FAF, Optos, and Zeiss Clarus 700. It will determine which system's measurements of geographic atrophy area align most closely with the standard care device in patients visiting University Station Eye Clinic.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study involves non-invasive imaging techniques rather than medication or surgery, side effects are minimal but may include discomfort from bright lights during imaging or temporary visual disturbances after the procedure.
