    Macular degeneration is an eye condition that affects the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp central vision. There are two main types, dry and wet, with dry being more common and involving breakdown of the macula over time, while wet involves abnormal blood vessel growth under the macula. Symptoms include blurred or distorted vision that makes reading and other detailed tasks difficult.
