- What is myopic macular degeneration? And why is the number of people living with the condition increasing? Professor Pete Coffey joined us at our condition-specific Virtual Clinic to talk more about the condition and how, in the future, it could be more common than age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Thanks for this video. I have learned a great deal about a condition I have had since I was young. Thanks to Pete Coffey for the work the London Project continue to carry out to hopefully help with MMD and other related eye diseases.
How r u now
Thank you for this video. I am an MMD sufferer and it's hard to find anything on the condition, and especially hard to find anyone talking about what kinda stuff could be done to prevent and (in my case hopefully) cure/fix it. Crazy that we may have a billion sufferers as the years continue to climb - but hopefully that pushes us to either patch our society to help people with low vision, or find a cure to this terrible condition.
Thanks for your comments. If you are based in the UK, we are soon to launch a virtual support group for people with MMD. If you'd like more info, it will be on our website in the next week or two.
