Living with macular degeneration | Chris’s story

To view the accessible version please follow this link • Video
In this video, Chris describes what it’s like living with the eye condition macular degeneration. He tells us what his vision is like and how it changes from day to day. Chris was going out less and less, but his wife encouraged him to reach out to support groups, and since then he’s started to take part in the things he loves to do again. He’s looking forward to being partnered with a guide dog, and going on walks independently.
