If you have a close relative with AMD, you have a 50 percent greater chance of developing the condition. Before your next eye exam, speak with your family about their eye health history. You may need more frequent eye exams based on your family history. #AMDAwareness
The Academy’s Mid-Year Forum 2025 is happening April 2-5 in Washington, D.C.! This event will address opportunities and challenges facing ophthalmology, medicine, and our patients given the new Administration and Congress.
