Macular Degeneration Exams

Age-related macular degeneration (macular degeneration) is a disease that blurs the sharp, central vision you need for "straight-ahead" activities such as reading, sewing, and driving. Macular Degeneration affects the macula, the part of the eye that allows you to see fine detail. Macula Degeneration causes no pain.

 
In some cases, macular degeneration advances so slowly that people notice little change in their vision. In others, the disease progresses faster and may lead to a loss of vision in both eyes. Macular degeneration is a leading cause of vision loss in Americans 60 years of age and older.
