Macular degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in the UK.

The macula is the part of the eye responsible for detailed central vision. If there is a change at the macula, then tasks such as reading, sewing or watching TV will be affected.

Our resident Optometrist, Ravi Sohal, features on ITV’s Daybreak to discuss the impact of macular degeneration on our ageing population (AMD).
