pure tone thresholds of 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 4000, 8000 Hz were measured.

The speech recognition threshold is the lowest hearing level at which speech can barely be recognized or understood. The SRT is defined as the lowest hearing level at which the patient correctly repeats 50% of a list of spondaic words. Examples are airplane, hot dog, outside, ice cream, and baseball. Usually a very soft level (db HL).

The SDS test tool is a single syllable word list. Each table consists of 50 words, such as, look, go. The test method is to listen to the subject at a volume higher than the SRT value of 20 to 40 dB (30 dB), so that the subject repeats the spoken word sound. Based on the percentage of correct answers, normal people can repeat 95 to 100% of the words, and 80% or less of them are bad discriminating power and affect the understanding of language. SDS is usually expressed in %.

Case group including 100 patients diagnosed with age-related macular degeneration (50 women, 50 men).Demographic data and dietary intake of different food groups were assessed by a standardized interviewer-assisted questionaire with the method of face-to-face interview. The body weight of the individuals were measured with a calibrated electronic scale,anthropometric measurements were measured by the researcher. Participants' dietary intake was assessed using food frequency questionaire (FFQ). The FFQ included 65 food items traditionally consumed in Turkey. Foods were classified into the following food categories: milk and dairy products, meat and meat products, fruits, vegetables, breads and cereals, beverages, and desserts.
