Macular Degeneration
Macular degeneration is a condition that involves the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for fine, detailed vision. It is usually related to aging and gradually affects central vision.
How it presents: blurry central vision, difficulty reading or recognizing faces and, at times, straight lines appearing wavy.
When to seek care? With any change in central vision, a timely eye exam is advisable, since early detection is important.
Which specialist treats it? The ophthalmologist, in particular the retina specialist, is the one who studies and follows up on this condition. If you notice changes in your vision, scheduling a professional evaluation is most advisable.
