  1. If you have vision problems and are in #Canada, Fighting Blindness Canada is having a series of in-person Coffee Connections across the country. Each will have an eye doctor who will lead discussions and answer questions about age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or an inherited retinal disease (IRD). It also gives you a chance to meet others with the same eye conditions.
    Here are details so you can see if there is one coming up in your area.
