The DEterioration Of One’s Central Vision Is A Very Real Threat To Baby Boomers

Posted by admin

Can you imagine not being able to read, drive or recognize your loved one’s faces? This is a very real threat to millions of people in the world, especially those known as baby boomers. The threat is known as macular degeneration, which is a disease that causes the deterioration of one’s central vision. However, peripheral vision is not affected. If you are obese, your risk is increased for developing this disease. Your risk is also increased if you smoke and your skin is lightly pigmented. You can reduce some of the risk factors for this disease if you quit smoking and lose weight.
