AMD is a leading cause of vision loss in people 50 years or older. It damages a specific part of your eye called the macula. With AMD, you lose the ability to see fine details, both close-up and at a distance.

Some people with dry AMD might benefit from certain vitamins and minerals. Taking these nutritional supplements every day could help to slow their AMD.

You should talk with your ophthalmologist to learn if these nutritional supplements are recommended for you.

If you have any questions about your eyes or your vision, speak with your ophthalmologist. They are committed to protecting your sight.
