Abstract
Age-related macular degeneration is a progressive degenerative eye condition that causes painless loss of central vision in those aged 55 years or over. It is a disease normally associated with the elderly, and is therefore a growing problem worldwide due to our ageing population. The cause is suspected to be multi-factorial and no cure has been found. However, there are novel treatments available that can help delay its progression.
