Macular Degeneration


Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a chronic eye condition that slowly destroys the macula, the part of the retina responsible for sharp, central vision. AMD is the leading cause of vision loss in people over the age of 60.

The symptoms of AMD can vary depending on the type of AMD and the severity of the condition. There is no cure for AMD, but there are treatments that can slow the progression of the disease and improve vision. The type of treatment depends on the type of AMD and the severity of the condition.

If you have any questions or concerns about AMD, talk to your eye doctor.
