Top Institutions in Ophthalmology
Leading institutions in this field utilize a combination of clinical trials, advanced imaging techniques such as microperimetry and optical coherence tomography, and patient-reported outcome measures to assess treatment efficacy. They also contribute to the development and validation of novel functional endpoints that better capture the impact of GA on vision beyond traditional visual acuity measures.
