THE BEST GIFT FOR MOTHER’S DAY: SHARP VISION WITHOUT AMD

A simple eye test can prevent blindness

The world’s leading cause of blindness by people over 50 years of age is age-related macular degeneration, also known as AMD. The macula is the part of the retina that is responsible for sharp vision. Macular lutea is the point of sharpest vision on the retina, also called the yellow spot.

The main cause of vision loss in macular degeneration are leaks and new vascularization in the retina due to fluid retention. Early diagnosis and treatment of macular degeneration is extremely important to prevent vision loss. The earlier the macular degeneration is recognized and treated, the better the result after the treatment of the patient.

For patients suffering from macular degeneration, treatments with special medicines can improve eyesight and even prevent blindness.

First signs of AMD

Distorted vision is a first, very serious sign of possible macular degeneration. A fast treatment is advisable, since vision losses are difficult to repair and the vision loss must be stopped.

The Amsler grid test

To find out if your mom (or dad, grandparents, friends and family members) is suffering from macular degeneration, you can do a simple test at home using the Amsler grid in front of a computer or smartphone.

The Amsler grid test is an easy way to detect early macular disease. A person with normal, healthy eyesight will see all straight lines. A person with AMD sees lines wavy and distorted. If you see any distortion, dark or blurred areas, boxes of different sizes or bent or distorted lines, please contact us.

We recommend that you use the Amsler Grid – an easy way to detect early AMD. Show this test to your parents or grandparents today and give them a life without vision loss.
