Macular Degeneration is a disease in which the center part of the retina (the macula) breaks down, leading to blurred vision, central distortion, and large blind spots. It can lead to severe vision loss. Risk factors include aging eyes, a family history, smoking and sun damage. Routine vision care is important to identify early warning signs or risk factors. With proper care, preventative steps can be taken to preserve vision and avoid significant vision loss.
