Abstract
What makes this case noteworthy is the fact that this patient, who was homeless developed blindness in both eyes due to macular degeneration. This is due to the fact that he had no access to any sort of healthcare or even to basic resources such as proper shelter and food. This resulted in the deterioration of his overall health, including his eyes. If he had access to proper resources and healthcare, his severe macular degeneration could have been slowed or even prevented.
