Very interesting...about 8 yrs ago, my dw was diagnosed with macular degeneration, but that was by an optomotrist, so we took her to a macular degeneration specialist, who confirmed it. But, I did not really believe it, since it has not been progressing the way it should......I think it may have had something to do with eoad, but I can never really be sure. At this point, the macular degeneration is being ignored (if it even exists at all). I think the vision problems probably had something to do with the eoad...
