AMD-QoL/Evidence
Method evidence record

AMD-QoL

The AMD Quality of Life (AMD-QoL) scale is a disease-specific instrument designed to measure the impact of age-related macular degeneration on patient-reported health-related quality of life. Developed by Mitchell, Bradley, and colleagues (2005), the AMD-QoL addresses concerns unique to macular disease: central vision loss, reading difficulty, facial recognition, driving impairment, and emotional burden. It serves as a primary or secondary outcome in AMD clinical trials and informs patient-centered care decisions.
