Thanks for the link. I'll look into it.

FWIW, I believe phase 3 clinical trials for ARMD has already started. I would suspect aproval is going to be later this year or early next year. However, with the FDA recently accelerating the approval process for many therapies, it could be sooner. The success rates so far are fantastic from what I have heard. I plan to connect myself directly with some folks involved in the actual clinical trials very soon to get their first hand opinions and other details of how it works and what the patient goes through. I'll also be interested in the screening process and what criteria is needed before treatment is indicated. I expect to attend a seminar in middle February at which one of the speakers is directly involved with the trials. I'll post what I find out when I find out what I find out :)
