Eyes on Capitol Hill

Our Message to Capitol Hill: Vision Care Matters

Apply today for a chance to receive a free scholarship to join this unique advocacy event.

Prevent Blindness America's Eyes on Capitol Hill event will take place in Washington, D.C. March 2-4, 2009.

The initials AMD stand for a disorder called age-related macular degeneration. AMD is a disease that affects part of the back of the eye called the macula, the central part of the retina. This can cause the center part of your vision to become blurry or wavy. It could also cause a blind spot in the center of your vision.

Here you will find facts, statistics and interactive tools on macular degeneration and your eye health. And if you know someone who has AMD, or you think may have AMD, please share this website with them.
