👁️ Macular Degeneration Awareness
Protect Your Central Vision for Life
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in adults over 50. It affects the macula—the part of the retina responsible for sharp, central vision—making everyday activities like reading, driving, and recognizing faces more difficult.
Early stages often have NO symptoms, which is why regular comprehensive eye exams are essential for early detection and monitoring.
Watch for warning signs:
- Blurred or fuzzy central vision
- Straight lines appearing wavy
- Dark or empty spots in the center of vision
- Difficulty seeing fine details
Who’s at higher risk?
* Age 50+
* Family history of AMD
* Smoking
* High blood pressure
* Prolonged UV exposure
While there is no cure for macular degeneration, early detection and treatment can slow progression and help preserve vision.
📅 Schedule your dilated eye exam today and stay ahead of vision loss.
Your sight matters—protect it for the moments that matter most.
