Thank you for this video. It is always good to have something like this in the file cabinet of my brain. New technology is great and if it can help people keep their vision that's even better. Of course, working on computers, phones, etc. ruins your vision. Sometimes it seems we take one step forward and two steps back.

It sounds like a great thing! My dad developed wet MD when he was about 80 years old. Though it was a bad thing, it led to my moving in with him to help him. That led to almost 9 wonderful years together before he passed away at 91 years of age. That being said, it is sad to see a very active loved one loss their eyesight and much of their independence.I am 65 now, so MD is a concern for me and I always make sure the doctor checks my eyes for it during yearly exams.

@@chrystalthornton1502 I am sorry your family has to deal with this as well. Once it has started, there are injections that can be made into the eye that stop the bleeding. This treatment was developed after my dad had MD for some years. At first he was given laser treatments, but the bleeding always reoccurred. But the medicine shot into the eye finally stopped the bleeding. Preventative measures include taking the vitamin lutein.

I had this test last month during my regular yearly test (combined with my regularly scheduled plaquenil testing). I was told it was to see how I adapted to seeing in the dark, but I truly did not understand the test procedures or how it would be interpreted. Apparently, I passed but we did discuss age-related macular degeneration (a problem my father had) and doctor wanted me to be aware of it along with my thin retinas, and the optic nerve damage he has been monitoring for year (stable for all that time). After viewing your video, I have a better understanding of how the test works and why the woman in the headset kept reminding me to look at red dot. My eyes would begin to wander if I thought I hadn't seen a flashing light in a while and so I would go in search of one (LOL). Thank you for this very helpful video.

Thank you for making this video! I have so many questions regarding the topic...I am dealing with premature Macular Degeneration as a 29 year old woman. My eye doctor first saw questionable specks on my retinas. He was very forward with me about causes and effects of it, but he told me he wasn’t concerned because of my age. Still, he referred me to a specialist who confirmed that it was in fact MD. My age really confuses all the specialists I’ve seen. That all began about 5 years ago. I was told to take certain vitamins and to look for signs of MD, since at that point I wasn’t experiencing any effects. Now I have trouble with night driving slightly but more so on rainy nights. Also sometimes lines or words in books can bend but not a lot. My brother has since got tested for the gene, and luckily he does not have it. My mom has no family history of it, but my dad was adopted as a child so he doesn’t know his hereditary medical history at all. I do have some health issues that are not genetic nor eye related so maybe my existing issues could be related some how...my doctors couldn’t say one way or another because my health issues have minimal scientific data or research! I’m at a dead end, but I’m resilient and I won’t accept, “we don’t know.” as an answer. Is it possible to talk to you via email or even phone call! I don’t care which way, but comments are public. Thank you.

I found out I had AMD after going to the eye doctor when I noticed the edge of a doorway was wavy rather than straight. They were surprised to find AMD at my age (52) and questioned whether or not I had diabetes, which I don't. I started a program of monthly eye injections to try to stabilise it but sadly I've had to stop these due to the cost so I am no longer receiving any treatment for the disease.

It has to do with the feed back loops that make the experience of vision in the brain. One of the first processing points that the nerve fibers from the eye reach is called the LGN (lateral geniculate nucleus), but about 80% of nerves feeding into the LGN are actually from the visual cortex, telling the LGN what it thinks you should be seeing. so even when the signal is being reduced or lost from neural damage, the visual cortex keeps filling it in as best it can, filling in the holes with what "should" be there. This is an oversimplification but that is the idea. this help? In AMD (macular degeneration) the layer of tissue that keeps the photoreceptors fed and healthy stops working properly, especially the ones in the center of vision, the macula. Once they break down, the photoreceptors themselves break down, and can no longer send signals to the brain.

However, the retina specialist did OCT prior to my cataract surgery and couldn't find any evidence of macular degeneration. My mother had AMD by age 60 and since I'm almost 70, I'd like to know if it's in my future, because not knowing is hard. AMD is so life-changing.

I have trouble with left eye for now 4years. My eye I woke up and had floater that moved around when I looked around. I had twin vision of everything a few months before. I moved to a different town in 2018 and it things looked bent but no black spots. Now all I see dark shadow around in the room. My eye though is borrowing vision from my right eye. I could my right eye clear up more as my left eye got worse. It is like I have tunnel vision. I still see dark shadows in my left eye. I was hoping it would clear up, so it hasn't. My left is borrowing vision from my right eye, strange. 🤔

My night vision is terrible now. I don't dare drive at night, and my eye doctor sees me yearly to monitor drusen that are surrounding the macula in both eyes. I have been monitored for possible macular dystrophy for the past 4-5 years. She has been taking photos of my retina every year for the past 3 years. Right now, the drusen have not entered the macula, but they seem to hover on the periphery like the sword of Damocles, lol. Light/dark adaptation is a major problem for me too. I haven't been tested with this gizmo, but my adaptation is so slow it's obvious.

I haven’t been to see an eye doc ever since I was diagnosed with NAION, which seems much like macular degeneration or maybe is a form of it. I feel like the bright lights from the 3 appointments it took to get a diagnosis made the condition worse and am afraid another eye exam will cause my other eye to fail too. I’m in my 70’s.

It doesn't sound like macular degeneration, but in one eye, I suddenly have what I can describe as a liquid cloud obstructing the lower half of my vision. Really is as if I'm seeing the gel in my eye as it swirls etc. The top half of my vision is fine but yea.. any idea what I'm dealing with? I'll see my eye specialist soon but would appreciate hearing what you think first.

Hey thanks for the question! True age related macular degeneration is something people get once they approach the age of 50 and older. But there are other diseases that are similar and appear when we are younger. For your sake, I hope any symptoms you have are temporary. Sleep is very good for the whole body, even the eyes and especially the brain. Device use is good to limit, as it may put increased demand on the eye muscles. There are some studies that suggest high energy light from the sun and artificial sources could damage the retina, but this has not been fully accepted at this time. More studies will tell. Either way, it will be best for you to have an eye exam with a qualified eye care professional in your area. Hope that helps.

hey. I hope you're having a good day. I'm sorry to leave this comment under an unrelated video but I really need your help. I've been wearing glasses since I was 6. My problem is nearsightedness (forgive me if the word is incorrect, I'm not native). And it's kinda very high. almost 8. I'm 22 now. And my whole life I've thought about having an eye surgery some day. But recently I can't decide to go which way. I saw your video and read a lot about LASIK surgery and found out that it's simply not worth it. So I was thinking about wearing glasses and contact lenses (I've never used contact lenses before). But today I found out about a new method which is called SMILE. It sounds pretty safe and logical (except the cost) but I'm still not sure. So I really really need your help. I would be very happy if you reply me. thank you

Can high doses of statin help with the progression of dry form of macular degeneration? My eye doctor wants me to take them, but I’m not comfortable with taking these high doses. I was diagnosed in my 40s due to hereditary and I am now in my mid 50s.

I do not have Macular Degeneration. I have Macular Telengictasia where the cells in the macular that use the highest energy (for fine detail vision like reading) are slowly dying. There is no cure. I first noticed it because my mother gave me an Amsler grid.

hello, I know my issue is not related to the vid, but this is the latest one and probs will get more notice. I've miopia -11 and megalocornea, recently I was told I'm unable to get laser surgery so I've decided to get custom lenses based on my eyes' characteristics, however, the lenses arent covering my eyes fully which leaves me half blind and struggling to see at any range, wtf do I do

I have a distorted point in my central vision on my right eye only. I was told it was fluid under my retina and was sent off to the Melbourne Eye and Ear Hospital, supposedly one of the best, for scans. The result was that they found NOTHING. And yet l still have the problem. What do l do now????? I need glasses for my vision generally, but nobody will make them due to this problem.?????

Ok the technology is cool but other than charging me more money how does it help. If it is dedecting macular degeneration earlier then can be detected from a retinal exam, then how does that change the treatment. Is it not the same..sunglasses, vitamins, stop smoking and maintain a clean cardiovascular health? Wouldn't you have suggested that anyway?

Hello, Rodney. I am the Director of Professional Relations at MacuLogix. Having a metric like the rod intercept can help you to detect and monitor your AMD patients at every stage. Much like an IOP or A1c, it gives you more information and gives your patient an easy to understand metric to follow their disease as well. Please feel free to reach out at MacuLogix.com if you have any additional questions.

You're not helping the patient any, when you say flash, what do you mean? Every time the green light goes completely off and on, or are you speaking about the pulses within the green light? I've seen many videos on this subject and the docs. are more concerned with how much extra time their techs. will have to mock around rather than guiding the patient through this procedure, and not explaining the procedure very well. **If you slow this video down to the lowest speed, those flashes are turning off and on...too bad you couldn't explain that on your video.
