   <p>Hi , thank you so much for taking the time to introduce yourself to the community and share a bit of your story with us. I&#39;m so sorry to hear your symptoms have been progressing. Have you let your eye doctor know? I encourage you to do so if you haven&#39;t already to ensure you&#39;re getting the care you need. </p> <p> Additionally, here&#39;s some more information on impaired depth perception and macular degeneration: <a href='https://maculardegeneration.net/micropsia' target='_blank'>https://maculardegeneration.net/micropsia</a> </p> <p> Lastly, one of our advocates also lives alone and has written a few articles on this topic and shares her tips: <a href='https://maculardegeneration.net/living/independent-living' target='_blank'>https://maculardegeneration.net/living/independent-living</a> and <a href='https://maculardegeneration.net/living/alone' target='_blank'>https://maculardegeneration.net/living/alone</a> </p> <p> Hope this helps and know that this community is here for you! </p> <p> - Shelby, <a href='https://maculardegeneration.net' target='_blank'>https://maculardegeneration.net</a> Team Member</p>

   <p>my depth perception changes as my eyes improve or degrade. I clear walkways, have night lights on in the house at night to navigate. Eventually it should settle down and be consistent with treatment.</p>
