What is the cause of ARMD?
Doctors and scientists are still not sure what causes ARMD, which makes it hard to come up with an effective treatment. There continues to be a tremendous amount of research currently being done with this disease as more of the population ages and lives longer. In addition to trying to better understand what causes it they are also looking at how the disease process works, develop more effective treatment options and determine if there is any preventative or protective factors that patients can do earlier in life. back to top image Visual perception photos above of ocular disease come from the NIH website.
