Age-Related Macular Degeneration: Current Treatments and Future Therapies
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) affects millions of people and can lead to vision loss. Prompt treatment for the “wet form” of AMD is important to prevent permanent vision changes. Dr. Do discussed treatments and future therapeutic areas.
Speaker: Diana V. Do, MD
The year 1900. MD almost unheard of. Then huge increase in manufactured so called vegetable oils and sugar in the food supply. By 2000, approaching 20%. Hmmmmm.
Best treatment is eating all your dark leafy greens and carrot juice all organic. Also bilberry really helps plus change your diet to vegetables and fruits. Feed your eyes with the best foods. Doctors don't tell you what foods to take. My right eye improves when I eat alot of blueberries or bilberry.
Bushcraft And Astronomer.
So true. Its the food.
Well said
No discussion of PUFAs role. Better watch Dr. Chris Knobbe for that, if you want to see how nutrition is being left out here.
wonderful talk
Will acupuncture help in AMD. Eylea and Pagemax don’t seem to work for my eye. Thanks.
Are some yoga asanas harmful?
Despite receiving regular injection at the VA in San Francisco I fear losing my central vision and only have wet in one eye at this point. This lecture was very informative. I'm baffled, however, that the VA in San Francisco uses injections that cost $2,000 each whereas I read in an article from the Chicago Times that a doctor there questions why everyone wouldn't be using one of the three which only costs $50 per treatment. Perhaps I will attempt to reach this doctor to answer that question, but this was very informative. Thank you!

Was diagnosed with MD 2years ago but was never told anything just a prescription for new glasses!! No wonder blindness occurs due to ignorance on patients part and possibly the med service and no follow up!! THANK YOU AS NOW I KNOW WJAT TO ASK xxxxx n
Great presentation, answered so many of my questions! Thank you, Dr. Do!
God bless you ,you are a great teacher you answered all my questions and relieved my anxiety Thank you Thank you 👏👏
Stem cell treatment has been performed at Moorfields eye hospital uk on two people. They have
had very good results, watching tv and reading newspapers
Mam am from India
Am suffering macular degeneration eye disease
Any treatment plizzz
@@sujitkumar-wx6bk - Make sure ur getting Vitamin A. Not from carrots but cod liver oil or sheep liver. Check out Chris Knobbes work - it may help
This was very helpful and informative thank you.
Fabulous lecture ..... I have it .... and glad to understand more about my condition .... I still blessed . yes .. you must be on good diet !
Hlo sir...do you able to see 6/6 from Ur deterated eye...
My dad went through 2 yrs of painful injections to supposedly help his macular degeneration - Avastin only left him with permanent scarring.. which the scareing from reaction to Avastin ledt my dad blind ….
Now what can we do???
Going blind. Unfortunately being on Medicare and Medicaid I cannot afford treatment. Copay is 100 bucks and then the 20% you are asked to pay exceeds my monthly Social Security amount. Fixed income equals no coverage...
I have wet macD and have had fibromyalgia since 2001, which can cause inflammations anywhere on the body and brain. On Feb 10, 2001 I developed a pseudo tumor which a ct scan found around my optic nerve and it is a reoccurring several times a year since then sometimes on the left sometimes the right and sometimes both eyes affected as well as severe swelling on the affected side of my face. I wonder if that is why I have amd now? I am 75 yrs young and 5'2" at 123 lbs.
How are you ?
Hi mam pls tell about lasik eye surgery,
Great lecture but instead of giving supplements it is the food. Ask patients to change to a whole food plant based diet and stop junk food.
No. There is no assurance that a "whole food" diet will provide the necessary nutrients.
You are right about a bad diet contributing. I have heard vegetable oils are the very worst thing.
@@conniemcmurray5146
I am over 60 on whole food plant based nutrition for over 10 years. I run, hike and enjoy life. The American dietetic association states that such a diet is beneficial at all stages of life. Lots of research done. Follow the science and not Facebook
@@conniemcmurray5146
Avoid meat based diets and non Whole Foods which includes vegetable oils.
smoking yes of course we all know that smoking is stupid, but how about all the Co2 in our environment? that is something that I think needs to be looked at. Doctors and scientists really need to examine the effects that breathing these fumes in can do.
Your body produces CO2 so that is probably not an issue. But you are probably correct that some of the toxins in cigarette smoke are also present in the environment.
Thanks for sharing knowledge god bless you.
What causes all white vision when watching tv and other time too for age 90 and over?
Is there any way to regenerate macula and if not why macula cant be regenerated to cure AMD

Thanks for the information, it was helpful
Dr William Bates book advises sunning for many vision defects, I found some improvement in my vision by sunning, I have intermediate dry Macular degeneration.
I am a Dr in the UK and most impressed with your presentation
Nutrition. Not age.
John Wilks
Thank you. Doctors and drug companies will not discuss a diet of green leafy vegetables and fruits because it does not cost $2000 per injection plus cost of frequent doctor visits. Also doctors are not thought nutrition in medical school.
This was most informative and in language that is easy to understand.
A very heartfelt thank for the information!
Doc i had been ìnjected wt avastin20 yrs ago just once now ati age 80 my macula is geting wider right eye question si there ayteatment im taking preserVision and eye drop cationorm thanl you

What a wonderful/comprehensive lecture. Sincere thanks to you. Pls we need more of such.
Very interesting thank you I have CNVM what ever that is can you explain what o have
Research nettle tea or tincture. Works. Has Leutin and zxanthin
Suzanne Furman
Cooked spinach has multiple antioxidants, fiber, etc and high in lutein
Do you get wet on one eye and dry on other at same time?
You get dry macular degeneration first. However, I believe there are no symptoms with dry AMD. So you won't know you have dry AMD unless it is advanced (geographic atrophy) or unless you are examined by an ophthalmologist.
Will there be an eye drops for Macular Degenerations in the future? for both formal wet/dry macular degeneration? has they been any new treatments approve from the FDA? What new medication will be available for both Wet AMD, Dry AMD? Jocelyn Gallant
Thank you,I have started treatment.
How does AMD differ from CSR?
So no surgical tx options yet right?
no :(
Every case is different, but with my mother's case, both wet and dry, diagnosed over ten years ago, a heavy supplementation regimen has held the Avstastin syringe / needle at bay for over three years. I do not believe my mother has had more than a half-dozen shots in each eye prior to her current long-term stability. While we both take over two dozen supplements a day and I like to focus on life extension, my mother's eye supplementation regimen contains several key ingredients. Resveratrol with Quercetin, Zinc, Mixed Carotenoids, Rice Bran Extract Powder, Natural Mixed Tochopherols Vitamin E with high Gamma E, Eye Factors Formula (Lutein, Bilberry etc.), Vitamin C, Mixed Oils Supplement (Borage Seed, Flax Seed, Deep Sea Fish Oil), Twin Labs One A Day Iron Free Multi Vitamin, Grass Fed Whey Protein, non-GMO foods and many organic foods including organic beef, turkey, chicken, butter and milk. Again, each individual is different, but an excellent diet and supplementation program can provide great benefits.
Thanks for the information.
About all the supplement you say there is any supplements that has everything in one pill.
Or we have to bought separate?
Thanks again.
@@manuelasaenz9355 you can get everything you need through diet! Kale/spinach will give you all the lutein/zeaxanthin you need. You can take macuhealth. But keep in mind supplements are just substitutes. Food is better. Fruits/veggies have all the antioxidants, vitamins, minerals you need to fight this. Cod liver oil, and coconut oil are good as well. The proper nutrients will keep your eyes stable and even reverse it. Just have to eat right for our sight! God bless!
Thanks...great updates !
plz tell me the cure
Good knowledge
Thank you so much for explaining my condition to me in such a precise and understandable way.

I am seeing distorted in my Left eye

I am 30 and I have MD. both of my eyes are full of drusen and my vision is getting blurrier. Why no one is talking about MD developed in young people????
Can i communicate with you im 31 and i have AMD also and need some one to talk to plz
I'm 41 and was just diagnosed with it. It's uncommon at our younger ages.
@@myheartisinthemountains2660 i have wet type and im so depressed.
@@leekey6065 mine is the dry kind. I came in search of anything that I can try to do to help it progress slower. It sounds like there is treatment for the wet at least.
@@myheartisinthemountains2660 i hope so im living in sudan it took 2 years so i finally diagnosis with AMD last week its been shock to me i just think its was CSR i will start take lucentusinjection its too late but may its help me .
The latest treatment for macular degeneration should be nano-grade eye drops from Lorati
If your doctor is sharp, she will be aware of the latest effective treatments. Trust her
If she's good she will make those injections like nothing
because our generation is living longer .... BULL.... in the centuries even small kids had eye problem and eye infection of different TYPE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD..... MOST IN FAR EAST ASIA AND MIDDLE EAST AND ALL OVER IN EUROPE BACK ABOUT 200 years....
my mother has this and i am doing research , i am 50 and my mother is 80 , i plan on taking supplements or what ever will help .
ua-cam.com/video/0irOVdfuRcE/v-deo.html
Should I take the vitamins if I have early Amd dry I have the genetic markers
ua-cam.com/video/0irOVdfuRcE/v-deo.html
absolutely - Lutein and zeathanthin supplements such as in Macushield or iCaps
Eye injection to treat wet-form AMD seems out of date already.
God's mercy nano-grade eye drops should be the last-ditch treatment
for wet-form AMD.
All glory belongs to God !
Not true, sorry.
The culprits of wet-form AMD are:
1. occluded Bruch's membrane
2. calcified Bruch's membrane (excessive calcium, iron, etc.)
VEGF, PlGF are end products, not the culprits.
Please spend more time to study and make good R&D before you make any
medical statement.
Nano-grade eye drops can help Ameircan Mr.Tony Hester who's open-angle glaucoma
regenerates optic nerve. This is the fact. Mr. Tony Hester now still lives in Florida.
All glory belongs to God !
Lost central vision due to dry-form AMD can be effectively repaired by western
medication? It seems to milk from the bull. But God's mercy will shock the world
again because God formed man out of dirt from the ground.
@P C We humans should recognize
the fact that we're created by God out of dirt from the ground. God's clay is the only materials for regenerative medicine (stem cell therapy).
Nano-grade eye drops consists of
God's clay and pure water can effectively treat and reverse macular degenration.
Those anti-VEGF injection can't treat
macular degeneration effectively because culprit of macular degeneration is not VEGF.
All glory belongs to God !
God bless you and your family
