]]> You spend nearly one-third of your life asleep. Yet most people have no idea what their brain is actually doing during those hours. And when sleep breaks down, everything else often follows.

The Macular Degeneration Association gratefully thanks Dr. Meenal Agarwal and Dr. Andrea Matsumura for sharing this exceptional and informative presentation. Your knowledge, dedication, and support are invaluable to the patients, caregivers, and families we serve.
