Let me rephrase your question: "Why am I experiencing blurry vision and vision changes in one eye?"

Vision changes like blurriness and distortion in AMD can affect one or both eyes. It's common to have different severity levels in each eye. If you develop advanced AMD (geographic atrophy) in one eye, you're more likely to develop it in the other eye as well. Key symptoms to watch for include:
- Central vision becoming blurry or less clear
- Straight lines appearing wavy (especially noticeable when looking at things like window blinds)
- Difficulty seeing in low light
- Colors appearing less bright
- Dark or blurry spots in your central vision

These changes should be monitored using an Amsler grid daily. If you notice sudden changes, especially if straight lines appear wavy, contact your eye doctor right away as this could indicate progression to wet AMD.
