Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to expand the CE mark IFU of the SING IMT™ to pseudophakic (patients with an intraocular lents) patients with late stage of AMD (Age-Related Macular Degeneration) and bilateral central vision impairment. This randomized, international, multicenter study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the device in this patient group. Findings will support regulatory submissions, clinical decision-making, and potential label expansion.
