Does chronic alcoholism cause macular degeneration in children?

No: You can get damage to the brain from excess alcohol but no evidence for macular damage has been shown.

Macular degeneration: No alcoholism doesn't cause armd in kids. It can cause fetal alcohol syndrome which can have ophthalmic manifestations. Or the child could have rop if premature which is associated w maternal alcoholism.

Macular degeneration: The usual risk factors are positive family history, cigarette smoking, far sightedness, light iris color, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, female gender, heart disease , and of course aging. To my knowledge alcoholism in a parent doesn't cause macular degeneration in their children, unless the above risk factors apply to the children.
