Prevalence of Age-Related Maculopathy and Age-Related Macular Degeneration among the Inuit in Greenland

The prevalence of ARM is higher than in most other populations studied, and the prevalence of AMD in the oldest age group is higher than in most other populations studied. The prevalence of exudative degeneration is higher than the prevalence of GA, in contrast to findings in some of the Nordic countries-particularly Iceland-and earlier observations in Greenland.
