AMD Awareness
RTE’s Mary Kennedy (pictured right) is joined by AMD patient Hilda Barrett to launch AMD Awareness Week 2011, which takes place from Saturday 17th- Sunday 25th September. AMD (age-related macular degeneration) is the most common cause of registered blindness in Ireland and is thought to affect one in ten people over 50. Throughout AMD Awareness Week, free testing will be available to detect the early signs of AMD at a range of opticians, eye doctors, public libraries, golf clubs and other locations nationwide. Further information about AMD and free testing locations throughout the country is available at www.amd.ie. Picture Conor McCabe Photography.
