If the cure comes soon, there will be a lot of happy people. Not nice watching someone going blind or being the person suffering the changes.

"Though there are some treatments for the wet form of AMD, we still don't have a cure for the condition, and millions of people are still at risk of losing their vision to both the dry and wet forms.
