Diagnosis and treatment

Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a slow deterioration of the cells of the macula, often over many years. Currently, there are no approved medical treatments for dry AMD, but research is going on around the world, including projects funded by the Macular Society. See more information below on what is in the works.

Diagnosis and treatment

Diagnosing age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

The optometrist at your local optician’s practice can test sight, prescribe glasses and check for eye disease. Some optometrists use photography or other imaging to detect early signs of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). These might include optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans which create cross-sectional images of the retina. You may be charged for these tests.
