A member asked:
Can you recommend magnifiers for macular degeneration?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Depends upon the severity of visual loss. For lower levels, using readers with increased power and occasionally a tint can help. Remember though, the higher the magnification the less you will see at one time. At higher powers, assessment by a low-vision specialist can help. They can recommend cctv or other visual aids.
