Age-related macular degeneration (ARMD/AMD) is the deterioration of the central part of the retina, called the macula, which is crucial for central vision. This part of our eye is responsible for seeing fine details and colors, which are essential for activities like driving, recognizing faces, reading, and watching TV.
The first symptoms of macular degeneration you might experience include:
⚫ Blind or dark spots in the center of your vision that do not move
👁️Decreased or blurry vision
🌈 Different color perception (rare)
〰️ Lines appearing wavy
