    About this ebook

    Your loved one is not alone.
    As many as 11 million people in the United States have some form of age-related macular degeneration. Due to the aging baby boomer population, the National Eye Institute estimates that nearly another 3 million Americans will have a loved one with AMD by 2020.
    Globally, it is the leading cause of vision loss and is responsible for some 50% of visual impairment. The number of people living with macular degeneration is expected to reach 196 million worldwide by 2020
    AMD is the leading cause of severe vision loss in the developed world.
    It affects the families of over a million Canadians.
    According to the Deloitte Access Economics report, more than 1.7 million Australian families will have a loved one with Macular Degeneration within the next 20 years.
    There are similar estimates for England and most other developed nations.
