Early stages will cause some central blur uncorrectable with eyeglasses. Your ophthalmologist can notice changes on retinal examination. If you are having problems get an ophthalmologic examination.

See a retina special: If you were diagnosed with macular degeneration by an eye doctor, you can see a retina specialist. He/she has different imaging technologies (like optical coherence tomography, Fluorescein angiography, and fundus autofluorescence) that can better elucidate the nature and severity of your disease. Using an amsler grid at home to monitor central vision changes is also important for you.
