About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess safety and efficacy in patients with Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration with no response to existing therapy.
The main measures it aims to answer are:
* Investigation of adverse events * Changes in clinical testing data * Changes in vital signs * Changes in intraocular pressure of the therapeutic eye * Changes in testing of anterior segment of the therapeutic eye Participants will be implanted one sheet of PAL-222 into the subretinal space through pars plana vitrectomy.
Researchers will compare pre and post implantation of therapeutic eye to see if any safety issues recognized
