Check out the free eye exercise program from American Vision Institute
at www.visiontherapy.net. This was created by some of American's
leading eye doctors and is designed to reduce dependency on corrective
lenses. Also gives new treatment for cataract, glaucoma, and macular
degeneration. Also check out the research supporting the program,
click RESEARCH on the index bar.

Zero effect.

Take vitamins supplements containing lutein, zeaxanthine, vitamins
A,C, plus zinc and selenium. The brand names are I-caps and Ocuvite
but there are generic equivalents. High does have been clinically
proven to improve macular degeneration. Also, get frequent eye exams
and be sure your type of macular degeneration doesn't develop into the
"wet" form. There are new treatments for wet macular degeneration
that doesn't involve lasers.

Just don't waste your money on eye exercises.

Well, you forgot wearing blue blockers and keeping one's blood
pressure down and exercise. Zinc lately has come under question and
is also being investigated in AREDS2. (Actually zinc has been found
in (or promotes) drusen). The effect of lutein is in that study also
(AREDS2). Some studies say that lutein is of no value, I believe it
does. Not sure where your selenium came from.

PDT (photodynanic therapy), lasers, is coming back into vogue to
keep down the frequency of the initial monthly visits using just
Lucentis.

Besides all that, I was really curious of Beresford's answer since
his references do not relate to that area, that I could see.

have "blue blocker" glasses, blood pressure control, and exercise been
shown to be related to macular degeneration? I am not aware of that
but sometimes I miss new studies. if you have a reference please pass
it along.

i believe the posting is all about promoting a worthless program for
controlling the development of refractive error I think, but maybe he
is making even broader unfounded claims relating to ocular diseases?
