February is Age-Related Macular Degeneration Awareness Month 💙

At the Fort Lauderdale Eye Institute, we aim to raise awareness of this condition, emphasize the importance of eye health, and encourage everyone to prioritize their vision.

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a progressive eye disease that affects central vision and can make everyday activities like reading and driving more difficult, often without early symptoms.

We strongly encourage everyone, especially those aged 50 and above or those with risk factors, to schedule a comprehensive eye exam.
