Brief Answer:
Hello. This isn't from you macular degeneration

Detailed Answer:
Hi Don. No, this isn't a symptoms of macular degeneration.

It could, however be a sign of a partially detached retina or even a transient ischemic attack--a threatened stroke. So you need to have this checked out right away with a full eye exam and perhaps an MRI of the brain.

Please let me know if you need any more information.
