Macular Degeneration or Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a condition that blurs central vision. This happens when the macula, which is the portion of the eye responsible for clear & sharp vision gets damaged due to aging or other factors. AMD is a common & leading cause of vision impairment in older adults. Although it may not cause blindness, it can affect your ability to read, see faces, drive, and do work like cooking or fixing things around your house. The speed of degeneration varies & can occur very slowly in some people, and much faster in others. Early AMD may not cause vision loss. It is important to have regular eye examinations to determine if you have AMD.
