In the winter of 1978, a group of individuals with macular problems met in Garden City, New York, to discuss their common difficulties. They organized a not-for-profit corporation to promote education and research in this scarcely-explored field. Today this association acts as a nationwide support group for individuals and their families endeavoring to adjust to the restrictions and changes brought about by macular disease.
Counseling/Social Work/Self-Help: Provides counseling and support to people with macular diseases and helps them lead independent lives. Information & Referral: Disseminates information on resources.
