I am 80 years young π and I have wet AMD in one eye and dry in the other. Have been getting Eylea injections for the wet AMD for 2+ years. Iβm doing very well with the treatments and my dr is wonderful. Thank you for this wonderful video and I agree with everything Liz said. I applaud her positive attitude! She is an inspiration! Liz, I wish you all the best and many more years living your life to the fullest as you bravely have been!

Thanks for this! I had commented before on your video(s) not featuring people living alone with AMD and you provided a thoughtful response at the time. I appreciate that you made this. I can relate to a lot that Liz is saying, although I'm in the early days she talks about, doing everything humanly possible to reduce the progress.... in an urban Canadian city, determined to be out and about. It's great to hear her talk about moving forward and dealing with each challenge as it comes up. Thank you for doing this and thank you to Liz for the depth of detail she goes into on different aspects of life. It definitely inspires hope.

Oh my goodness, thank you Liz for this wonderful video. I have wet AMD...my eyes are dry now, after receiving injections, and cataracts. I will be meeting with the cataract doctor soon and I hope that will be of help. I love my ophthalmologist and trust him completely. I too have been really active...will turn 80 in June and have committed to doing one last half marathon in October in Detroit. Thank you thank you, thank you. And, to EVERYONE with AMD who has watched this...I wish you all the very best.

I want to be as positive as her. I like what she about focusing on what you CAN do.

Depth perception is a real problem for me.

Looks like she's doing pretty well. My Mom had dry AMD and could barely function.

Hi, Have you tried The Red Light Therapy?

Putting on eye makeup is impossible?

I was diagnosed with macular degeneration but both doctors are baffled with mine, they don't know yet what has caused it at my age. I am 48.

Oh Liz, thank you for this vid. I am 77 years old and live in NYC alone. No one I know shares my condition therefore it's difficult for them to relate to my situation which adds frustration to my challenges. For someone like me who has led an active, strong, fully functional life, the aging process alone is a hard nut to swallow and vision loss is terrifying. To those in my life who are spared personal experience with this condition and try to be supportive, I will share your vid and hope they will be informed in ways I am unable to communicate. Thank you.
