DO YOU HAVE MACULAR DEGENERATION?

As we age the likelihood of contracting Age-Related Macular Degeneration becomes greater. While 10% of those from 66-74 will have AMD, that number rises to 30% for 74-85 and goes to nearly 50% for those over the age of 85. What causes AMD and are you at greater risk than others are the questions most people have. Opthamologist and expert Dr. John Michaelos, of St. Michael’s Eye and Laser Institute, will join us today on Health, Wealth and Wisdom at 4pm to discuss what you need to know about AMD and what you should do about it if you are told you have it. Assisted living communities are becoming more and more specialized. When choosing the right place for yourself or a loved one do you know what to look for? Do you know what might be the right place for your parent? And for those that are veterans, what are the benefits you can receive for Assisted Living Services?
