This episode of Macular Chats focused on resources and support for people who have been diagnosed with macular degeneration.
After a macular degeneration diagnosis, the best way to adapt to vision loss is to learn new ways of doing things. Ed Haines discussed the resources available from the organization Hadley, which provides practical, social, and emotional support to older adults adjusting to vision loss.
Macular Chats is a series of free monthly discussions from Macular Degeneration Research, a program of BrightFocus Foundation. The program features retina specialists and other eye care professionals who discuss various aspects of living with macular degeneration, promising research on the horizon, and more.
