NO
We previously reported using resonance Raman spectroscopy that patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) have lower macular pigment levels than healthy individuals. In this study, we measured macular pigment density in AMD patients and healthy individuals using fundus autofluorescence spectroscopy to validate our previous findings.
Others
To compare the skin carotenoid levels between patients with age-related macular degeneration and healthy individuals.

Male and Female
Patients diagnosed with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in one eye and the fellow eye unaffected by AMD (either with a normal fundus or in the early stages of AMD), as well as patients without macular diseases, where the eye under examination (either the AMD-unaffected eye or the normal fundus eye) has undergone cataract surgery or has only minimal cataract.
1) Individuals receiving dietary counseling due to chronic illnesses
2) Individuals with macular diseases other than age-related macular degeneration
3) Individuals with opacities in the cornea or other ocular media
