About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Mirabegron works to treat dry AMD in patients, aged between 50 and 80 years-old, with early or moderate dry AMD and overactive bladder.

The main question it aims to answer is:

• Is there any change in outer retina morphology in patients treated?

Researchers will compare the safety and efficacy of mirabegron versus conventional approach (Solifenacin) to treat dry AMD in patients with dry AMD and overactive bladder.

Participants will:

* Take Mirabegron or Solifenacin every day for 12 months * Visit the clinic once every 6 months for checkups and tests
