Photobiomodulation Laser for Reticular Pseudodrusen in Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2026
This study evaluates whether a low-energy laser treatment called photobiomodulation (PBM) can improve visual function and retinal structure in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who have reticular pseudodrusen. PBM is a non-invasive therapy that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity and reduce inflammation without causing tissue damage. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either active PBM treatment or a sham (inactive) treatment. The study will assess changes in visual performance under low-light conditions and retinal structure over a 12-month period. The goal is to determine whether PBM can slow disease progression and improve visual function in patients with early stages of AMD.
