In­tro­duc­tion to AMD

What is AMD? A short ex­plan­a­tion and in­tro­duc­tion.

Age-Re­lated Mac­ula De­gen­er­a­tion (AMD) is a ma­jor cause of blind­ness in eld­erly people in in­dus­tri­al­ised coun­tries. You can dis­tin­guish the at­roph­ic (“dry”) and the ex­ud­at­ive (“wet”) form, which is the more dev­ast­at­ing one.
