Had AMD 25 years ago. It was a bump on my retina causing a strait line to be curved in my vision. At that time I got laser treatment and it worked very well. Was a one time treatment and I had ok vision afterwards but not right away. It seemed as time went by my vision got better and I did not notice the new blind spot as much. I was lucky my vision loss wasn't right in the center. What bothers me is now they don't do that anymore. Instead they use big pharma drug injected in the eye citing the old way leaves scaring. Well if the old way left scaring I didn't notice it in my vision at all and for 25 years all was okay and got better. With the shot in the eye it might not work and you have to go back for more shots and doctor doesn't know how many times you have to keep being treated. It doesn't make sense migrating away from a tried and proven laser treatment to this new drug based treatment.

Thank you for your interest. You can find more information at www.randeye.com under Dr. Danzig's page. You can write down the treatment that you are interested in, and ask your ophthalmologist about the availability and if you are a good candidate for the treatment. Unfortunately, treatments available in the US are not always available everywhere but there may be a similar treatment available for you there.

But what causes the inflammation?

accumulated drusen, heavy metal, oxidative stress If drusen can't be excreted to surface of cornea, western medication is of no use. The culprit of dry AMD is due to accumulated drusen. kzitem.info/news/bejne/1Zqg2GmwbKd6lW0

In the aging retina, free radicals and oxidized lipoproteins are considered to be major causes of tissue stress resulting in local triggers for para inflammation, a chronic status which contributes to initiation and/or progression of many human neurodegenerative diseases such as AMD Can be attributed to genetics, stress or environmental elements such as UV light.

I've just seen eye Doc and he knows nothing about any new Meds or t-ment for AMD! Nutrition and eye exercises is keeping my AMD at bay!
