February is Macular Degeneration Awareness Month
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a slowly progressive eye disease that damages the central vision, impacting daily activities like reading, driving, and recognizing faces.
Risk factors include family history, poor diet, genetics, smoking, UV exposure, and aging. Many patients don’t notice symptoms early
Which is why routine dilated eye exams are essential.
At Basin Eye Surgery, our ophthalmology team provides comprehensive retinal evaluations to help detect macular degeneration early and protect your long-term eyesight.
If it’s been a while since your last eye exam or if you’ve noticed changes in your sight, now is the time.
Call today to schedule your dilated eye exam and take a proactive step toward preserving your vision.
