Can the Risk for AMD be Modulated?
Sponsor: Association for Innovation and Biomedical Research on Light and Image
Summary
The goal of this Cross-sectional, interventional study is to learn about whether different risk factors, as Mediterranean diet, lifestyle and concomitant medication can modulate the risk imprinted by genetics in Age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The main question it aims to answer is: How the genetic risk interacts with environmental and lifestyle factors, especially Mediterranean diet and chronic medication, in order to assess how this interplay protects or presents higher risk for the establishment or the progression of AMD. Participants: Vital Signs will be measured; Medical History, Demographics, Nutritional/lifestyle habits and Family History of AMD will be recorded; Ophthalmological Examination will be performed Genetic analysis will be performed.
