Macular degeneration (AMD)

Macular degeneration (AMD) is a common age-related eye disease which affects the clarity of your central vision. The incidence of macular degeneration increases with age, and about three people per 1000 over the age of 50 will develop macular degeneration.
Macular degeneration is categorised as an “age-related” eye condition meaning that it occurs mainly in older people.

Diagnosis and treatment for
Macular degeneration

Understanding Macular Degeneration

The macula is the area of the retina that’s responsible for seeing clearly in the centre of your vision.

If you are experiencing blurriness, distortion or blank spots in your central vision, our ophthalmologists can carry out comprehensive eye assessments to check the condition of your eyes and diagnose the type of macular degeneration you are experiencing.

There are two types of macular degeneration conditions: 

Dry age-related macular degeneration:
  • Have a transient (or intermittent) diplopia condition
    A progression of vision loss over a period of time.

  • Wet age-related macular degeneration
    A sudden and rapid progression of vision loss.

TREATMENT

Macular degeneration
treatment

Although there is no definite treatment to reverse any current symptoms of macular degeneration, our ophthalmologist can help prevent or slow the progression of the disease.
After diagnosing your condition, your specialist will begin the treatment process.
If you are diagnosed with wet macular degeneration, your specialist will repeat Anti-VEGF and/or other injections to preserve and stabilise your vision. This treatment will require regular check-ups and monitoring of your vision.
Dry macular degeneration requires frequent monitoring and check-ups of the eyes. Dry macular degeneration is a less damaging condition for your eyes and does not require injections for treatment.
