My wet AMD developed after diving into a pool/bumping my head/a time of extreme stress. Was my wet AMD triggered by a specific event?
Although symptoms of wet AMD may develop after a singular incident, it is important to know that the vast majority of wet AMD develops spontaneously without a particular preceding trigger. It’s possible that wet AMD may come on while you are sitting or sleeping. There is no reason to limit your exercise or normal physical routines. If anything, it’s important to keep active and healthy.
