@@allisonrogers1409 is there anything else you do that would reduce the chance or prevent the other eye from also getting it like taking medication, etc?
Thank you, Dr. Mendelsohn. I am 66 and was diagnosed with Dry MD in both eyes about a year ago when I noticed the lines on my computer were wavy near my central vision in my right eye. I have a family history of wet and dry MD. My Ophthalmologist said I would likely loose my central vision within 10 years. Then she recommended AREDS 2 twice a day and I've been diligently taking them ever since. I just had a follow-up and my ophthalmologist happily said my eyes are stable, and while not expecting it, she said my eyes actually looking a little better.
I had wavy line vision in my right eye and had to close it for reading with the left eye. I went on a diet of vegetable and lots of fruit and I can read with both eyes now…the wavy line vision has gone. I also took vitamin B 12 methylcobalamine and integral rice etc…..no white refined or processed food…. Also coffee has a bad effect on eyesight.
I'm a 61 year old woman with a mother that is currently being treat for AMD and a grandmother that had it as well. Currently I'm taking the AREDS, eatting more spinich with my eggs in the morning, taking fish oil supplements, and will start moving my work computer further away. And I need to purchase some better sunglasses. And I need to get more salmon in my diet. This Dr didn't say anything about spinich, however Dr Berg does mention it to be important. And it can't hurt.
lol As I read this, I was think, she is doing a keto diet, then you mentioned Dr. Berg further down lol. Surgar reduction or elimination would be best advised in this video as well. Hope its all working out for you.
Thank you, Dr. Mendelsohn I really appreciate the information you shared and you presented it very professionally and it is easily understood by us laypeople.
Five Causes: 1. Refrain from SMOKING 2. Sunglasses with UV 400 blocker and polarization 3. Take AREDS 2 vitamin supplementation 4. Increase Omega 3 5. Protection against blue light
Peter Simon Kim I will be better able to comment on that as my patients return for their 6 month follow ups and of course the limiting factor is how well they adhered to avoiding sugar and vegetable oils. Sugar is 8x more addictive than cocaine, so not easy to abstain and veg oils are basically in anything that comes in a bag or a box. Hopefully I will be able to start collecting some positive outcome data from those that took this dietary advice seriously

@@kristinemeints Hi, Over the last three years I've been getting injections in my right eye for macular d. up until then I was and still am using eye drops to control the pressure in my eyes for glaucoma (it never just rains before it pours) I suggest looking up Dr Berg and anything linking age related macular degeneration and nutrition. When I was first diagnosed with glaucoma I studied everything I could find and took several vitamins listed for the eyes plus blueberries and the Dr (not knowing I had stopped using the eye drops for the 3 months between appointments, told me to keep on doing whatever I was doing and so I did...18 months later my eyes spiked in pressure and he wanted to know what happened? Embarrassed because I hadn't had the courage to inform him I then confessed; furious he checked my charts to see that the pressure had not increased until this apt. but I none the less I did not stop the drops in defiance; I had presumed that the following apt would reveal a spike and I could quietly go back on the eye drops without too much ado. Back to the point; our physical health has much more to do with good nutrition than I had ever guessed. Because I live in Australia, I couldn't get all of the recommended herbs and not all items are suitable for all people, so check everything out and make a plan, the injections worked very well; almost no distortion at all. Hope this helps
@@kristinemeints diet ...the things you eat can help tremendously.. you can prevent it. My dad just found out he has wet M.D. at the age of almost 86, we are going to work on his diet, my mom is 91 and no problems,....eye care (diet..etc) means a lot no matter what.
The best treatment for AMD for me would be a knowledgeable, caring retinal specialist. I don't like being told there is nothing they can do for me and seeing this video and others showing what is new for AMD care.
One of the best presentations I’ve seen on this subject. Thank you so much, so clear and practical. Unfortunately I was watching on my iPad, close to my nose (I have AMD) but I now now to get the blue light blockers and also watch less. Thank you again x
First of all, Thanx Doc for uploading ds very informative video. I've come across ds video vry recently. I'm fm India and my father is suffering fm AMD for the past few years which has become worse now and his vision is all but gone.His age is 75+. I used to wonder what's the reason? It couldn't be Diabetic Retinopathy bcz he nvr had any history of blood sugar. He had quit smoking almost two decades back and evn thn he was not a vry heavy smoker. He had cataract sugery few yrs bk and was under regular treatment under an ophthalmologist. But I think it is just bad luck that he's suffering lyk this.
Thank you Dr. Alan Mendelssohn for such a helpful, video. Your information is also relatively easy to implement. With ❤ from Johannesburg, South Africa.☺
Very straightforward (but not at all boring) presentation with enough why and how-to to give the viewer reasons and methods for trying to minimize or eliminate causes of macular degeneration. I feel that I can minimize my risk for AMD with confidence now.
Great content Dr. My 13 year old daughter has asymptomatic atypical ERM around her RE Macula which has progressed over 2 years. The amount of iPad time she spends due to school and then using it for downtime, its out of this world. She's literally spent time in front of the iPad from waking to Bed! Many times! And while her Optometrist said its unlikely the cause or could cause progression, I somehow don't find it comforting or believable! Intuitively I have advised by daughter to not have the iPad screen so close to her face, but she doesn't like it, I belive some really good Blue blockers, diet and reduction is sugar could help stop/ reduce the spread? Also the downtime will spent on blue screens needs to be eliminated, for my sons too, they are just as bad. Great content sir. Many Blessings.
Thanks for that important info. I was diagnosed with macular degeneration over 7 years. ICAP VITAMINS also kale and spinach juice was prescribed. Are those ok for me?
I've been diagnosed with 'wet' AMD and I don't smoke, have never been obese, diabetic, or had hypertension. To my knowledge, I have no relatives who were ever diagnosed with it. My only risk factors are age, being Caucasian and having blue eyes.
Do you eat PUFA vegetable oils or foods containing them? If so, that is the biddest risk factor... Please watch this video... ua-cam.com/video/7kGnfXXIKZM/v-deo.html
This is a helpful video but not just moving our cell phones Etc farther away from her eyes it's a good idea to turn the screen light down I've done that and that's helped my eye strain
25 years macular vegan, I stopped cold turkey but ARMD continued gradually--lived near equator ltr Uv! Wet. Acu'ar showed leaking micro vessels in the retina.. Kucentis injections began both eyes for 2 years. Wet Macular stabilized. Then Dry Macular started. Managed to slow it with supplements--but ARMD SLOWLY CONTINUES🤬
Polarized sunglasses can make some people feel "crazy." Basically while or after wearing them for a while (for me it was more than 2-3 hours continuously) you start to feel disoriented and unbalanced as though you have vertigo. It takes some time in a fully shaded area, like indoors, to recover from this. What's the deal? Others report this on the Internet as well.
Thank you for the information, but how do I but these sunglasses. I find 400uv, but can't find the front back and side. What do I look for. Also I were perscription glasses. Can I get these to go over my glasses?
L.E.D. lights popular in homes cars and torches are Class one lasers and burning the optic nerve. I have spent 3 years on a Laptop with LED screen and it got to the point where i cant even look at it and now i have black spots on my eyes... Not to mention that RF radiation from LED's and the laptop it self....
@@beepbop8123 I was getting hit with RF by the state got cancer on the face used black salve on that cleared it up, the spots on the eyes seems to have gone away have an in cancessant lighting much softer on the eyes...
Despina Christakis: Did your ophtalmologist prescribed "Antibiotic" for you? you also got MD= Macular Degeneration?? I also was diagnosed w/ beginning of MD, did you get antibiotics for Macular Degeneration?????? PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT WAS GIVEN TO YOU AND WHY. I WOULD REALLY BE VERY THANKFUL!!! I LIVE HERE IN SOUTH Florida, but nothing was prescribed even though I have the beginning of Macular Degeneration.Take care. Best regards. Sincerely, Rose K.
I have read online eating a quarter cup of fresh Spinach is one of the best ways to fight macular degeneration and slow its' progress...is s that true?
Macular Degeneration didn't exist prior to the anti cholesterol low fat diet. Ditto with Alzheimer's. Humans need 55 percent of their diet with fat. Stay far away from vegetable oils, use real fats and you shouldn't have this problem.
@@pollypurree1834 You are correct but esoecial as you said, avoid the PUFA vegetable oils... Please watch this video... ua-cam.com/video/7kGnfXXIKZM/v-deo.html
So even if you don't have AMD, you should take AREDS2? I read that it has no benefit, and that it should only be taken if you have early symptoms whether it's in your family history or not ..I'm confused
Melony: l could not afford the Bausch and Lomb Areds or Areds 2, so l looked at the main ingredients which are vitamins A (retinol), C, E, and zinc. I also take lutein daily. I take more of each that is in the B & L formula, Fortunately, I also like fish. That has helped my AMD.
Thanks Dr Mendelsohn, for the info. My phone has a night setting that tints the screen amber to eliminate blue light at night. Our Kindle Paperwhite has a "Warmth" setting that turns the screen sort of yellowish. Do these settings reduce or eliminate the blue light?
Greetings. Whilst some of your findings may be informative & important, I'd like to know something from this doctor. You said in the United States macular is high! Is this disease amoungst black & white people, or is it predominantly a european (white) disease? As your already know the United States is very diverse, with many (DILUTED) ethnicities. So please be specific when you mentioned the United States. I'm aware to some degree, that many diseases started from Recesses Gene Pool. Can you please enlighten the public with MORE truths!
Cigars are they just as bad if you are not inhaling it and just taste in it and blowing it out and are cigars just as bad if you have sunglasses on and have your eyes closed when you are smoking them so the smoke does not go into your eyes what is it the smoke going into your eyes it causes the problem or some of the smoke going into your mouth and into your bloodstream would be good to know because I always have my eyes protected when smoking and also I don't inhale the smoke thanks I also make sure after smoking cigar I take some antioxidants like liquid glitter thyon to help oxygenate my body is this going to help and a cigar is only smoked maybe once a month
6 years on from this vid ....78 yo with wer and dry amd having monthly injections... i.m very worried at the amount of man made foods and what they are cooked in..vast amount of research on this topic going on right now..check out Oxalates and vegetable oils in particular... Maybe the terminology Age related is due to the fact we have been consuming the above for a long time...!!!@
Great info. Thank you. I guess some supplements containing Luten, beta caretone, fish oil for repairing damaged caused Also using Anti Blue light glasses eliminating upto 400uv of light which is the main culprit. Also reducing small and closely used digital gadgets per hour/day especially at a strech over an hour. You can also add a drop of virgin coconut oil, few times a day. It has excellent tissue repair properties too.
Thank you for this informative video. I was recommended by my retina dr to try Beovu for my next injection but I am concerned about the side effects . May I know your opinion please? Or perhaps you can direct me to a site where I can compare all the different types ? I have had one injection of avastin and 3 eylea so far with no improvement Any helpful information is greatly appreciated, Thank you so much!
Instead of taking advice from a fat an unhealthy doctor who misses the number one cause of macular degeneration watch the videos of Dr. Chris Knobbe. Not only will you protect yourself from AMD, you will also reap other health benefits. This doctor would be wise to follow Dr. Knobbe.

So please be specific when you mentioned the United States. I'm aware to some degree, that many diseases started from Recesses Gene Pool. Can you please enlighten the public with MORE truths!
The American diet is what is causing disease!
No sound on my utube video!!

went to your website and didn't find the list you mentioned.
Cigars are they just as bad if you are not inhaling it and just taste in it and blowing it out and are cigars just as bad if you have sunglasses on and have your eyes closed when you are smoking them so the smoke does not go into your eyes what is it the smoke going into your eyes it causes the problem or some of the smoke going into your mouth and into your bloodstream would be good to know because I always have my eyes protected when smoking and also I don't inhale the smoke thanks I also make sure after smoking cigar I take some antioxidants like liquid glitter thyon to help oxygenate my body is this going to help and a cigar is only smoked maybe once a month
I’m so sorry.

Ultraviolet light do not cause melanoma.
Great info. Thank you.
I guess some supplements containing Luten, beta caretone, fish oil for repairing damaged caused
Also using Anti Blue light glasses eliminating upto 400uv of light which is the main culprit. Also reducing small and closely used digital gadgets per hour/day especially at a strech over an hour.
You can also add a drop of virgin coconut oil, few times a day. It has excellent tissue repair properties too.
Thank you for this informative video. I was recommended by my retina dr to try Beovu for my next injection but I am concerned about the side effects . May I know your opinion please? Or perhaps you can direct me to a site where I can compare all the different types ?

Stop concentrating focusing on screens cellphones and laptops
Instead of taking advice from a fat an unhealthy doctor who misses the number one cause of macular degeneration watch the videos of Dr. Chris Knobbe. Not only will you protect yourself from AMD, you will also reap other health benefits. This doctor would be wise to follow Dr. Knobbe.
Why not be checked for heavy metals and get to the root of it????
Although the information you present is good I could barely hear . There was a lot of background noise . I had to really concentrate on what you were saying in order to hear your message .
