Signed and dated written informed consent in accordance with ICH-GCP and local legislation prior to admission to the study
Age \>=60 years
Ability (including a sufficient general health status according to investigators judgement) and willingness to undertake all scheduled visits and assessments including predefined methodology and standards utilizing microperimetry GA secondary to AMD with no evidence of prior or active choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in the study eye
GA lesion in the study eye must reside completely within the FAF imaging field (Field 2- 30 degree image centered on the fovea)
BCVA of 20/63 or better (Snellen equivalent) using ETDRS charts at starting distance of 4 m in the study eye
Well demarcated area(s) of GA secondary to AMD with no evidence of prior or active CNV in the study eye
* The total GA lesion size \>=1.2 mm\^2 (approximately \>=0.5 disc area \[DA\]) and \<=17.78 mm\^2 (approximately \<=7 DA) and must reside completely within the FAF imaging field (Field 2-30 degree image centered on the fovea)
* If GA is multifocal, at least 1 focal lesion must be \>=1.2 mm\^2 (approximately \>=0.5 DA)
Sufficiently clear ocular media, adequate pupillary dilation, and fixation to permit quality fundus imaging in the study eye
You may not be if
GA in either eye due to causes other than AMD (for example, monogenetic macular dystrophies \[e.g., Stargardt disease, cone rod dystrophy\] or toxic maculopathies \[e.g., chloroquine/hydroxychloroquine maculopathy\])
Receiving active treatment in any studies of investigational drugs for GA/dry AMD in the study eye
Mean sensitivity difference \> 3 dB between the two microperimetry examinations in the screening visit.
History of vitrectomy surgery, submacular surgery, or other surgical intervention for AMD in the study eye
