- [Low Vision](https://lowvisionmd.org/category/low-vision/) - What is Low Vision? Best corrected vision (using glasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery) which is insufficient to do what you want to do. What Causes Low Vision? Vision loss occurs from a variety of causes. Some conditions are medical. Examples are Macular Degeneration , Diabetic Retinopathy , Cataracts ,and Glaucoma . Some conditions are genetic. Examples include Stargardt’s Disease , Retinitis Pigmentosa , and albinism. Other causes can be congenital or traumatic. Low Vision Doctors are more concerned with the amount of remaining vision, not the cause of the loss itself.
- [Stargardt Disease](https://lowvisionmd.org/category/low-vision/stargardt-disease/) - While macular degeneration generally is associated with aging eyes, an inherited form known as Stargardt’s disease can affect children and young adults. Stargardt’s disease — also called fundus flavimaculatus or Stargardt’s macular dystrophy (SMD) — affects approximately one in 10,000 people and is characterized by central vision loss early in life. (Some researchers believe a distinction should be made between Stargardt’s disease and fundus flavimaculatus, because they say each describes a different variant of the eye disease.) Stargardt’s generally refers to a group of inherited diseases causing light-sensitive cells in the inner back of the eye (retina) to deteriorate, particularly in the area of the macula where fine focusing occurs. Central vision loss also occurs, while peripheral vision usually is retained. Stargardt’s disease is diagnosed by the presence of small, yellowish spots of deteriorating tissue (drusen) sloughed off from the colored or outer covering of the retina (retinal pigment epithelium). Progressive vision loss eventually leads to blindness in most cases.
