pAge-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of blindness.nbsp; It results in a gradual loss of central vision, due to the failure of cells in the light sensitive membrane at the centre of the retina. There is currently no cure for the more common ‘dry’ form of the disease.nbsp;nbsp;/pPoor eating habits have a huge impact your health in general, including the health of your eyes.nbsp; There are other risk factors related to AMD, including age, smoking and obesity.
