Anyone have intermediate Macular Degeneration
Eye Conditions | Last Active: 2 days ago | Replies (75)Comment receiving replies
Hello,
Were you diagnosed with wet initially? That's the only way they'd give you shots, right? How old are you? Are your vitamins AREDS2?
Are you seeing a retinal specialist and a general opthalmologist?
I haven't heard of an oral treatment coming. I have heard of the photobiomodulation light therapy (not a lot of reviews), and eye drops that are in research, possible gene therapy and stem cell regrowth/patch. I just hope I'm able to benefit from something one day. I've been told today, this is not a blind-death sentence. I hope that's right.

Yes, wet initially. 74. The vitamins I had first went up to $90 and I purchased them through Amazon. The ones I have now are Vision Elements through my doctors office, around $60 for 3 months. According to my doctor, the crucial ingredients are Lutein 10mg, Mesa-zeaxanthin 10mg, Zeaxanthin 2mg... It also contains Aztec marigold flower and sunflower ingredients, and Vit E. I go to a new retinal specialist and have had a low vision specialist recommended to me after seeing double (from the 2nd operation) for 3 months. Not a problem now. It is really good to hear of help in the works in form of new developments! (thanks) I hope they go at warp speed.
