Understanding Macular Degeneration:
Macular degeneration is a progressive eye condition affecting the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp, central vision. It can lead to visual distortion and, if left untreated, may result in severe vision impairment.

Regular eye examinations are crucial for the early detection and management of macular degeneration. Our comprehensive eye exams include:
