Comprehensive Ophthalmology/Glaucoma SpecialistCorneal & Refractive Surgery Specialist
Age-related Macular Degeneration (ARMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in Americans 60 years of age or older. People with a family history of macular degeneration are at highest risk of getting the disease.
A new advanced genetic test (Macula Risk) is now available that identifies those who have inherited the gene, which increases their risk of vision loss due to ARMD. This exciting advancement in technology can identify patients at greatest risk for disease progression based upon genetic predisposition and that can lead to earlier intervention.
Medicare and many insurance companies will cover the cost of the test at the very first signs of macular changes. Don’t miss this informative talk with Dr. Macoul and learn about the latest in genetic testing for Macular Degeneration.
Join us to learn more. We look forward to your attendance. An assortment of desserts and fresh fruit along with coffee, tea and water will be served. This is a FREE event, seating is limited and reservations are required.
