February shines a spotlight on age-related macular degeneration (AMD), one of the leading causes of vision loss in adults over 50. AMD often develops slowly and without early symptoms, which makes regular eye exams incredibly important.

If you or a loved one has a family history of AMD or if you have noticed changes in your central vision, this is a great time to get checked.

Early detection gives you the best chance to protect your sight. đź’›
