Dry Macular Degeneration was detected in 1 eye. I take high doses of lutein (50mg) and zeaxanthin (10mg) daily and omega 3 fish oil 🎉48,000mg daily and do carnivore diet. My retina specialist said the dry macular degeneration is no longer detectable. I see her every 3 months. It has been gone for the last 6 months. My Diet consists of eggs, fatty fish, beef, occasionally pork and small amounts of chicken
People!!! Use Manuka honey along the lids with a Q tip dipped in water first....MIRACULOUS remedy! I found it on you tube. I've tried all the other ways..this worked!
I do no smoke and never have and I am not obese. I exercise daily. My eye doc says I have Drusen. Which he says can develop into macular degeneration. I am now taking supplements.
I went for my Annual Diabetic Retinopathy Test and got a letter back telling me I needed a "Slit Lamp" test, because they could not get a clear picture at the back of my eyes. The fact is, I have been getting blurry vision in my left eye, especially while watching TV, which is when I first noticed it. I have had over 3 years looking after my severley disabled Mother, who passed away in March, just a "Living Corpse" or a "Bag of Bones" not even able to "Speak" in the end. Which has left me "Crying every Day" She was a "Lovely Lady" and had a "Hard Life" And so I Gravitated to Alcohol. I was getting through a half bottle of Gin a day. And now I am unable to walk properly,, have a heavy feeling in my head all the time. Could it be that I have had a stroke?
Hi Joel Hayden I noticed this video is from 3 years ago....I read studies lately that the vitamins Preserv Areds 2 contains 80 mg of Zinc that is too much and can actually make the eyesight worse instead of better on some people... Do you have any updated information for those who already have been diagnosed with (AMD) Age-related Macular Degeneration?
I looked up the subject because I’ve been having issues with my eyes, not wanting to focus far away after reading or looking at things up close. I don’t have any diseases of the eye and have been taking fish oil for over a year now. I did start taking CoQ10 about three weeks ago and just recently noticed that my eyes focus well when I look up after reading and watching things up close. I was curious if this had anything to do with the CoQ10 I started taking. I am taking 200mg daily
My daughter had TMJ arthroscopy done and woke up with a very "beet red" left eye. Nurses and anesthesia team downplayed her pain and irritation and told me to take her to urgent care in the morning if it persisted. I did and there was "extensive corneal abrasion. Urgent care told me to take her to an emergent eye clinic at the hospital for further care asap. I did and it was actually found that her entire cornea was ripped off as well as some of the white of her eye! She had a contact patch put over the exposed eye and has been doing drops four times per day. One week later and still recovering, still has blurry vision.
It's frustrating when the allowance if for the frames, but it doesn't cover the lenses. I like my frames and just want to get my lenses updated, but the lenses aren't covered by Davis. Which makes no sense that contact lens are covered and they're essentially equivalent to the lens on a pair of glasses.
If you’re a nerd who has never known what driving pleasure is, you’ll love teslas. I got mine 2 months back. Can’t wait to trade it in for a normal car
I am 75yo. I take omega capsules (my Dr recommended these over fish oil bc of mercury in fish). I also eat blueberries daily (antioxidants help w AMD). After using reading glasses for 40 yrs, I no longer need them.
I've been doing some research and saw that the job market for OD's is looking oversaturated. Do you still recommend going into the field considering the amount of graduates and schools across the states?
I recently had something like this come out of my eye. I was driving my car when suddenly my vision got blurry and it felt like something was in my eye. I pulled over and looked in the mirror. I had a long skinny white thing coming out of my eye near the tear duct. I grabbed it and pulled it out. Once it was out, my vision was back to normal again. This was the weirdest thing I've ever experienced.
