[Abstract] Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) usually occurs in middle-aged and elderly people aged 50 or above, developing progressively, which can lead to monocular or binocular partial or even complete vision loss. It is the primary cause of vision loss in the elderly. In recent years, researchers can non-invasively examine the effects of eye disease on the visual pathway even the whole central nervous system by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique. This paper mainly reviews the research progress of MRI in AMD in recent years from the aspects of structural magnetic resonance imaging,blood oxygenation level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD-fMRI) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI).
