Global burden of age-related macular degeneration (1990–2021): trends, age-sex disparities, and socioeconomic dynamics from the GBD study
Although global efforts over the past 30 years have led to a decline in AMD prevalence rates and YLDs, the absolute number of cases and YLDs continues to rise, driven by age, sex, socioeconomic status, and geographic location. These findings provide an epidemiological basis for developing global public health strategies to address these ongoing challenges.
