- Visual acuity: BCVA in the study eye between 20/40 and 20/320 and better than or equal to 20/320 in the fellow eye.
- Patients who refuse standard of care or have not benefited from standard of care in the opinion of the principal investigator.
- Clear ocular media and adequate pupillary dilatation to permit good quality ophthalmologic exam.
- Male or female patients aged \>= 50 years.

- Use of any approved or investigational AMD agent (standard of care) within four weeks of study enrollment.
- Use of any systemic investigational agent within 30 days of study enrollment.
- Any uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
