NCT02248324

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether common genetic polymorphisms that have been verified to be related to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in some populations are also associated with AMD in Turkish population

Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients with intermediate and advanced age related macular degeneration

You may qualify if:

  • Older age more than 50 years for the study group and older age more than 60 years for the control group
  • Intermediate or advanced stage age-related macular degeneration
  • Active or inactive scar choroidal neovascularization
