Eye Problems and Diseases – Age Related Macular Degeneration
What is Age Related Macular Degeneration?
As the name implies, Age Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD) is an eye disease that is primarily triggered by age. There are two types of ARMD, wet and dry. Either can affect one or both eyes. The dry form is more prevalent, occurring in 90% of the cases. It’s slow to develop and vision loss is gradual, although not necessarily severe. The wet form is much more damaging, causing rapid and severe vision loss.
Even though vision loss is not complete, it is significant enough for an individual to be considered legally blind and for quality of life to be severely affected.
