Searching natural remedy on AMD (Age-related Macular Degenation

Hi,
Thanks for your advice.
A brief searching on Internet, I found following information from National Eye Institute (NIH) :
AREDS 2 Supplements for Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
....
AREDS 2 supplements can’t prevent early AMD from developing into intermediate AMD.
medicine tablets
....
If you have late AMD in only 1 eye, AREDS 2 may slow down the progression of AMD in the other eye.
...
Are there any risks or side effects ?
Because AREDS 2 supplements have very large amounts of vitamins and minerals, they may change the way your body digests food. They can also change the way that other medicines work in your body. ......
That, the last, is very important.
I don't believe completely the myth of medicine tablets. I'll continue searching the natural remedy of AMD. Thanks
Regards

My eye surgeon's nurse called back and said Yes, I am to take the AREDS 2 per instructions on the bottle as brands can be different. So, I will continue to take them. I see the surgeon for a check up in December this year. I'll ask him personally and my guess is he will tell me to take them "for life" as well as the Timolol. I had cataracts removed in February 2025. He checks me every 4 months. Not sure how often I'll see him after next year. By the way, the surgery was successful. I can see in high definition now. Things I thought were grey are actually blue or green. I will need glasses for life, and we knew that, but the fog and darkness is gone. Now this silly issue of AREDS 2 Have a great day everyone. Thanks for the support and oh my, the kindness of everyone is wonderful.
