Which Is Worse?
Today, I'll clear up some of your questions, such as, what is the difference between "wet" and "dry" macular degeneration, what can you do to lower your risk, and perhaps most importantly, what are the danger signs signaling you might have a problem. |
The Silent Sight Killer
Your eyes are fragile. And unlike other parts of your body, damage done to this most-sensitive area can be irreversible. Your eye’s lens doesn’t repair itself when damaged, and cells and proteins that are lost may never be replaced. |
Is Blindness In Your Future?
As we age, most of us notice that our vision isn’t quite as sharp as it once was. I know that there are times I find myself squinting at my computer monitor. But eye health goes far beyond fatigue and eye strain. |
Not A Dry Eye
Tears are essential to lubricate the eye and maintain healthy vision. They are made up of a combination of water, oils, mucus, antibodies and special proteins that help the eyes resist infection. |
Eat For Better Eyesight
As Baby Boomers increasingly celebrate turning 60, many are noticing that thier vision isn’t what it used to be. In fact, age-related eye conditions are increasing for those entering the senior set. |
I Spy
One of the most frequent concerns I hear from my patients as they get older is the possiblity of macular degeneration. It isn’t a baseless fear. The sad truth is that one out of every 27 Americans has reduced vision due to age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). |
Improve Your Eyesight
It’s no secret that aging takes its toll on sight. Over the years the surface of the cornea—the eye’s clear outer covering—flattens, admitting less light into the eye. The thickness of the macula—the part of the retina used for reading and seeing fine details—also becomes thinner. |
Vision Loss and AMD
The most severe eye disease that can impact your sight is age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which is a leading cause of vision loss among middle-age and elderly people. AMD affects the macula, an oval spot near the center of the retina that controls central vision. |
Macular Degeneration Symptoms
Eye health is important for everyone! While family history, gender, and race are all risk factors for age-related macular degeneration, there are things you can do to fight the disease. Learn the steps anyone can take to slow the progression of AMD or even prevent it in the first place. |
Macular Degeneration and Blindness
Age-related macular degeneration is the most common cause of legal blindness in people over 60. Learn what you can do to guard against this potentially devastating condition. |
Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Recent research has studied people with healthy eyes and found that certain antioxidant-rich foods can help protect your vision from age-related macular degeneration. |
