A 76-year-old woman presents to her ophthalmologist with a progressive decline in vision over the past 6 months. She describes her vision as being “blurry” in the center, particularly when trying to read or focus on objects directly in front of her. She notes that straight lines appear wavy, and her difficulty reading has forced her to rely more on magnifying glasses. The peripheral vision remains largely unaffected, but her central vision has significantly worsened.
