Can Macular Degeneration be Treated?

If detected early, the more aggressive and vision-threatening “wet” form of Age-Related Macular Degeneration can be treated with laser and injectable drug therapies. The more common and less severe “dry” form of Age-Related Macular Degeneration has no existing treatment and is generally managed by observation and nutritional supplements.

The growing use of pharmaceuticals (vitamins, minerals, and nutraceuticals) can be beneficial for patients with Age-Related Macular Degeneration. To learn more, contact a Texan Eye doctor today.
