Age Related Macular Degeneration - Overview

Age Related Macular Degeneration - or AMD - is an eye disease that causes loss of central vision, leaving only peripheral, or side, vision intact. It usually does not lead to total blindness. Whether you have the more common "dry" form of AMD or the more severe "wet" form, it is important to know the facts about AMD and what you can do to make the most of your sight. Information on early detection, timely treatment, comprehensive rehabilitation and support services, as well as new prevention suggestions have been provided on this website to help you.

Do not hesitate to contact the AMD Alliance International with any additional questions or concerns.
