Legal blindness is a BEST CORRECTED central vision of 20/200 or less in your better eye or a restricted field of vision (side vision) of less than 20 degrees. AMD is a leading cause of central vision loss in people aged 60 or older, but vision can often be preserved or enhanced. Have regular eye exams to monitor your condition. Currently, the vision in your right eye is pretty good.
