Macular degeneration treatment is not something I believe eye doctors as a whole are doing well. I think we’ve put our own preoccupation with top-level studies like AREDS and AREDS2 ahead of our concern for those patients who are going blind. Eye vitamins alone help, but not very much if that’s all the patient does. Eye injections put the disease in a holding pattern, but do nothing to address the underlying causes. It’s very easy for a macular degeneration patient to get depressed. But there is hope. Our Research Summaries will tell you about the factors researchers are finding helpful in the fight against macular degeneration.
