Newly diagnosed
I was just diagnosed with very early macular degeneration yesterday. I feel terrified because my 95-year-old dad is totally blind from MD and an old stroke. I’m 71, and so frightened about my future now.
Hi

If you haven't already done so, I highly suggest reading this great article written by one of our wonderful advocates, on his diagnosis: https://maculardegeneration.net/living/new-diagnosis-amd. I'm sure they will chime in and provide some responses here as well, but please continue to let us know how you're feeling as the days go on.
