Recruiting studies
- NCT07427160Recruiting
Study on best treatment for bleeding under the retina
This trial looks at whether the type of abnormal blood vessels under the retina affects how well a procedure (pneumatic displacement) works to move a macular hemorrhage (bleeding) out of the central vision area. It may help doctors choose the best approach for patients.
Trento, TrentoAges 50 years+ - NCT07456826Enrolling by invitationPhase 4

This trial tests a new eye-numbing gel against the standard numbing method to see which works better for patients getting regular anti-VEGF injections in the eye.
Tyler, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06929507Recruiting
Faricimab eye injections and kidney function in diabetes
This trial tests whether faricimab, an eye injection for certain eye conditions, affects kidney function in people with diabetes. It is for those with diabetic macular edema, wet age-related macular degeneration, or macular edema from a vein blockage, who are already taking kidney-protective medications.
Alexandroupoli, EvrosAges Any age - NCT07205887RecruitingPhase 2
Study of EYE103 for wet AMD or macular edema after BRVO
This trial tests an investigational drug called EYE103 injected into the eye to treat two conditions: wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or macular edema following a branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). It looks at how safe and effective the drug is for people who have not had treatment before or have not responded well to previous treatments.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07002372Recruiting
Watching a video before your first eye injection
This study tests whether watching a short video before your first eye injection helps you feel more at ease. It is for people who have never had this injection before.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06319872RecruitingPhase 1
Study of disulfiram for vision in retinal degeneration
This trial tests whether disulfiram, a drug used for alcohol use disorder, can improve vision in people with retinal degeneration. You must have an alcohol use diagnosis and agree to avoid alcohol for 6 months.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07215390RecruitingPhase 2
Study of APL-3007 plus Syfovre for geographic atrophy
This trial tests whether a new drug called APL-3007, when added to your current Syfovre treatment, can slow the progression of geographic atrophy (an advanced form of dry age-related macular degeneration). It's for people who have already been on Syfovre for at least 6 months.

This early-stage study tests a new cell-based treatment (C.001) for inherited retinal diseases that affect the back of the eye. The treatment may help slow vision loss or improve sight in people with geographic atrophy or Stargardt disease.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07502664Recruiting
A study on vision and navigation in inherited retinal disease
This study is looking at how people with inherited retinal disease that affects peripheral vision see and move around. It will test a new way to measure vision and navigation to see if it can help doctors understand how the disease affects daily life.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06203106Recruiting
NYSCF Scientific Discovery Biobank
This study collects blood, saliva, or skin samples from people with certain neurological conditions and from healthy volunteers to help researchers better understand and find treatments for these diseases.
New York, New YorkAges 4 weeks+ - NCT05147701RecruitingPhase 1
Testing stem cell treatment for NAION safety
This Phase 1 study tests whether lab-made stem cells taken from donated umbilical cord are safe for people with NAION. It mainly looks for side effects and safety rather than proving the treatment works.
Naples, FloridaAges Any age - NCT07144137Recruiting
Observation study for geographic atrophy progression
This study observes how geographic atrophy (an advanced form of dry age-related macular degeneration) changes over a short period. If you have this condition in both eyes and meet certain vision and eye health criteria, you may be able to join this non-treatment study to help researchers learn more about the disease.
Mountain View, CaliforniaAges 55 years+ - NCT07392255RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing CTx001 for geographic atrophy (GA) in AMD
This trial is testing a new treatment called CTx001 for people with geographic atrophy (GA), a late stage of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and can slow vision loss.
Carmel, IndianaAges 55 years+ - NCT06074731Recruiting
Eye imaging study using a new scanner
This trial uses a special eye scanner to look at eye diseases. It might help doctors see eye problems more clearly.
Linz, Upper AustriaAges 5–110 - NCT02253030Recruiting
Eye scan study for newly diagnosed wet AMD
This study uses a special eye scan (OCT angiography) to look at new, abnormal blood vessel growth in people with wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD) who have not been treated yet. It may help researchers better understand the disease and how it changes over time.
Portland, OregonAges 50–100 - NCT07811726RecruitingPhase 2
Eye drops for wet age-related macular degeneration
This trial tests a new eye drop called NT-101 for people with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss. The goal is to see if the drops can improve vision and reduce fluid in the eye, possibly as a less invasive alternative to injections.
Bonita Springs, FloridaAges 50 years+ - NCT06492863RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy (FT-003) for wet AMD
This trial tests a new gene therapy, FT-003, for people with wet AMD. It aims to see if a single treatment can help stop vision loss and may reduce the need for frequent eye injections.
Tianjin, Tianjin,ChinaAges 50–80 - NCT07770828RecruitingPhase 3
Gene therapy for advanced dry age-related macular degeneration
This trial tests an experimental gene therapy, OCU410, for people with geographic atrophy, an advanced form of dry AMD that causes blind spots in the center of vision. The study aims to see if this treatment can slow down the progression of the disease and help preserve remaining vision.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 55 years+ - NCT07668804RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of an eye implant for geographic atrophy from dry AMD
This trial is testing a new eye implant (TO-O-1007) to see if it's safe and helps slow vision loss from geographic atrophy, a late stage of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The implant is placed inside the eye and releases medicine over time.
Hurstville, New South Wales (nsw)Ages 50 years+ - NCT07662096RecruitingPhase 1

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for macular degeneration?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 164 recruiting macular degeneration studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a macular degeneration trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a macular degeneration trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
