Macular Degeneration
Ongoing retinal care, explained clearly and managed with consistency.
Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) Evaluation & Monitoring
We offer structured care for patients at risk for or already managing age-related macular degeneration (AMD). We track your condition over time, explain changes in plain terms, and coordinate care with specialists when needed.
Whether you’ve been diagnosed or are simply seeking macular degeneration screening near you, our approach is focused, calm, and built around long-term health, not urgency.
What’s Included in a Macular Degeneration Exam
AMD affects the central part of your retina (the macula), which supports sharp, detailed vision. Many early-stage changes are subtle, which is why routine macular evaluations are essential for early identification and intervention.
Your AMD eye exam may include:
Who Needs Macular Degeneration Testing?
We recommend annual AMD eye exams for adults over age 55, or earlier for those with added risk factors. You may benefit from regular macular monitoring if:
You’ve Been Diagnosed or Are Noticing Symptoms
If you've been diagnosed with early or dry AMD, or if you've recently noticed changes in near or reading vision, routine monitoring can help us catch small shifts before they impact your daily life.
Family History or Systemic Risk Factors
Patients with a family history of macular degeneration or conditions like diabetes and hypertension are at increased risk. We recommend annual macular exams to track and protect your central vision.
You've Been Referred for Retinal Evaluation
If your primary care doctor has requested updated findings, our team will handle your evaluation and share results clearly. We provide the first line of detection, guidance, and coordination for AMD care.
