Macular Degeneration - Introduction

Macular degeneration is a disease which affects the retina. In this video we will describe the symptoms of macular degeneration. The retina is the layer at the back of the eye which helps us to see the world around us. Macular degeneration causes changes in central vision. Images which were once clear may appear blurred. Later, dark spots may appear and enlarge. Straight lines may become distorted or curved. Colors may appear less vivid or darker. The eyes work together. When one eye loses vision, it may not be noticed because the other eye is still able to see. Each eye must be tested on its own to identify changes in vision. The symptoms of macular degeneration may be found in other eye conditions. It is very important for an ophthalmologist to perform an examination to ensure that no other conditions are present.
