What this study is testing

What it's testing
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.
