DISCUSSION:
Being diagnosed with macular degeneration can be frightening. Often occurring at the stage of life in which you have lesser mobility and hearing sensitivity, vision becomes a critical connection to the world around you.
However, many cases of macular degeneration are mild, and with proper nutritional support and exciting new treatments, vision is often preserved. In some cases, vision may actually improve!
