Macular Degeneration


Macular degeneration, also known as age-related macular degeneration (AMD or ARMD), is a medical condition that can lead to blurred vision or hallucinations during the visual field. During the early stages, there are often no symptoms but over time, some people experience a gradual deterioration of vision that can affect one or both eyes. Although it does not cause complete blindness, loss of central vision can make it difficult to see the face, drive, read, or perform other activities in daily life. Visual hallucinations can be seen but this does not mean any mental illness.



Macular degeneration commonly occurs in older people. Genetic and smoking factors also play a role. It is due to damage to the retinal macula.  Diagnosis is a complete eye examination. The difficulty is divided into early, medium, and late types. The latter version was further divided into "dry" and "wet" forms with a dry form making up 90% of cases.
