Degeneration of the macular results in loss of central vision. It is usually a result of ageing and is the commonest form of sight loss in older people. This group, which is a branch of the national Macular Society, meets on the first Thursday of each month (except January and August) at 1:30 for 2pm at SRSB, 5 Mappin Street, Sheffield. S1 4DT. New members are most welcome, just come along. For more information please contact Nick Woodford on 07845 346168
