AMD Vision Study

 
 

Our research team is evaluating a new vision test that is sensitive to subtle changes in vision and could improve screening for Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).

We are conducting a research study to validate this new vision test.

We are recruiting adults in the Hamilton Ontario area to participate in this research study.

Please consider participating if you:

  1. Bullethave been diagnosed with dry AMD

  2. Bullethave normal vision

Age-related macular degeneration:

a leading cause of blindness

Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in North Americans over 50 years of age. AMD causes a progressive loss of central vision, the part of your vision that allows you to read, drive and see images in sharp detail.

There are a number of factors that lead to increased risk of AMD including environmental factors, genetic variants, and advanced age.

AMD is classified into two forms: dry and wet.
