Mandatory for participation in this additional clinical investigation is prior approval from the sponsor of this clinical investigation in writing * A serious medical condition that prevents the patient from performing study activities (including cardiac, hepatic, renal, respiratory, endocrinological, neurological or haematological conditions) or, in the opinion of the investigator, is likely to require surgery or hospitalization (at any time during his/her participation on this clinical investigation) * Known allergy to any ingredient required (for dilation of the pupil, if no alternative agent may be applied) or any contraindication to be treated with Navilas® Laser System 577SL * If, in the opinion of the investigator, it is unlikely that the study protocol will be followed If only one eye is eligible for inclusion, none of the following criteria must be present in the fellow eye in order to allow inclusion of the study eye: * Presence of late-stage AMD in need of therapy * Presence of neovascular AMD (nAMD) in need of therapy * Presence of geographic atrophy (GA) in need of therapy (e.g. complement-inhibitors) * All the non-AMD eye diseases mentioned for the study eye as exclusion criteria * Previous therapeutic radiotherapy in the fellow eye region
