If you’re considering a gift in your Will to the Macular Society, thank you. Your gift will help beat macular disease for good.

Macular disease affects people of all ages, though age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is most common among older adults. The Macular Society supports everyone impacted by macular disease, including those with other types of macular disease who may be younger or still working.

There may be times when you need extra support to help you understand or cope with your sight loss. We offer a variety of services to help you keep your independence and to ensure you never feel alone.

Living with macular disease can be frustrating, but with the right guidance and support, people can cope very well. Our services can give you the tools to learn more about your condition and to help maintain your independence.

We provide virtual and face to face support, sometimes one to one and sometimes in group settings. We also run regional information events. So whatever your circumstances, there will always be an option that suits you.

Depending on your circumstances, you may be entitled to financial support from the government. Welfare benefits are available to help those living with macular disease, and their families, with extra costs.

Find information on our yearly Macular Disease Conference, as well as our upcoming My Macular and Me webinars, events and talks, along with recordings of these events.
