Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration is a progressive eye condition that affects the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp, straight-ahead vision. It’s one of the leading causes of vision loss in adults over 50 and can impact daily tasks like reading, driving, and recognizing faces.

There are two main types of macular degeneration:

Dry Macular Degeneration

This is the most common form and typically progresses slowly. It is caused by the thinning of the macula due to age-related changes. While vision loss can occur gradually, routine monitoring and lifestyle changes can help slow its progression.

Wet Macular Degeneration

Although less common, wet macular degeneration is more severe. It involves the growth of abnormal blood vessels under the retina, which can leak fluid or blood and cause rapid damage to central vision. Prompt treatment is critical.

At RevolutionEyes, we emphasize the importance of early detection and regular comprehensive eye exams to manage both types of macular degeneration effectively. Advances in modern ophthalmology, particularly for the wet form, have introduced innovative therapies that offer hope in preserving and stabilizing vision.
