Adult Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration is decline of the macula in the eye. The macula is the middle of the retina that is responsible for central vision. The retina is the tissue that lines the back of the eye and sends visual signals to the brain. Macular degeneration causes a gradual loss of sharp, central vision. The condition is primarily a disease of aging, although in rare cases it can occur in younger people.
