Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is responsible for half of registered visual impairment in the UK. The Royal College of Ophthalmologists recommends providing guidance to people with AMD regarding smoking, diet, and nutritional supplements. The aim of this study was to investigate lifestyle advice recalled by patients with neovascular AMD (nAMD).
