<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the clinical condition, which results in blurred vision or vision loss at the center of the visual field, due to a damage to the macula. Such a loss of central vision can make it difficult to recognize faces, read, drive or perform activities of daily life. Visual hallucinations are also common in people with this condition. It typically occurs in older people, but may be prevented by exercising and adhering to a good diet. Depending on the severity of AMD, it can be early, intermediate and late AMD. The diagnosis of AMD is through an eye examination. There is no treatment for vision loss but the management strategy strives to slow down the progression of AMD, by removing risk factors. This happens through mineral and antioxidant supplementation, and vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors, among others. This book contains some path-breaking studies in age-related macular degeneration. It unfolds the innovative aspects in the diagnosis and treatment of this disease. This book will help the readers in keeping pace with the rapid changes in this field. The readers would gain knowledge that would broaden their perspective about this medical condition.
