		<description><![CDATA[Recent discoveries regarding the origins of senile blindness. Age-dependent macular degeneration (AMD) is the commonest cause of blindness in the western industrialised nations. Hereditary changes in the regulation of the immune system influence the risk of contracting AMD. Opthalmologists at the University Clinic in Bonn, working in co-operation with researchers from GÃ¶ttingen, Regensburg and Great [...]]]></description>
