#macular-degeneration

I ask it when I listen to a close friend of mine, a world-renowned cosmologist, whose knowledge seems limitless but whose humility runs even deeper. He can discuss black holes one minute and quote the Tao Te Ching the next. He doesn't just know facts-he knows how to listen. He knows how to explain something complicated without making you feel small. That, to me, is real intelligence.

Miller explains, "It turns out, particularly where abnormal blood vessels develop in these retinal diseases like wet macular degeneration, that the drivers are very similar to what happens in cancer."

The study found that those who had been taking semaglutide or lixisenatide for at least six months had twice the risk of developing macular degeneration.
