Amsler Functions

Amsler functions involve a grid test used to detect visual disturbances caused by problems with the retina, particularly the macula, responsible for central vision. When you look at the grid, you focus on a central dot and observe any areas where lines appear blurry, wavy, or missing. Changes in the grid can indicate conditions like macular degeneration or other retinal issues. Regularly testing with an Amsler grid helps identify early signs of vision problems, allowing timely consultation with an eye care professional. It's a simple, quick way to monitor your central vision health at home.
