Age-Related Macular Degeneration: What You Should Know

AMD is one of the leading causes of vision loss in older adults. But with early detection and proper care, its impact can be managed.

🔍 There are 2 types: Dry AMD (more common) and Wet AMD (more severe)
👁️ It affects central vision—making reading and recognizing faces harder

Regular eye exams are key to detecting AMD early.
