Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is an eye condition which affects the central retina (the macula) resulting in a loss of central vision. The lack of appropriate clinical tests to monitor the progression of AMD at the early stages of disease hampers the discovery of novel interventions aimed at preventing the development of advanced vision-threatening AMD. In this project, we will investigate the use of a quick and non-invasive imaging technique for monitoring AMD progression.

年龄相关性黄斑变性 (AMD) 是一种影响中央视网膜（黄斑）并导致中央视力丧失的眼部疾病。缺乏适当的临床测试来监测疾病早期阶段 AMD 的进展，阻碍了旨在预防晚期威胁视力的 AMD 发展的新干预措施的发现。在这个项目中，我们将研究如何使用快速、非侵入性成像技术来监测 AMD 进展。
