Emotional Well Being
Depression is a natural process of working through the issues of AMD. Psychiatrist Arnold Wyse, M.D. gives reassuring guidelines for understanding that process and for gauging when help is necessary.

AMD Diet and Nutrition
It is established that certain lifestyle changes, including an eye-healthy AMD diet, can help slow the onset or progression of age-related macular degeneration.

Legal and Benefits
Patients diagnosed with macular degeneration may be protected by the ADA from the time of diagnosis regardless of the severity of their vision impairment.
