dry macular degeneration...a difficult thing to understand and accept.
there are no straight and simple statistics like what you're asking for (that i know about). X% go blind and Y% dont kind of thing. the reason you cant really find specific info is b/c it isnt really out there.
most doctors agree in the case of dry AMD theres not a lot that can be done. antioxidant supplements are the current accepted therapy. some new drugs on the horizon with promise, but yet to be proven.
