NEW YORK—Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of vision loss among people ages 50 and older. AMD causes damage to the macula—a small spot near the center of the retina and the part of the eye needed for sharp, central vision—which lets us see objects that are straight ahead, according to the National Eye Institute.
