About natural remedy for AMD

Hi all,

I was diagnosed suffering AMD (Age-related Macula Degenation) on early July, 2025. My left-eye has blurry vision on enter but no other symptoms found. I suspect being suffered on dry AMD because my left eye still able seeing straight lines.

I have been diagnosed suffering diabetes since 2006 but it is quite stable up to now. Also I have had blood and urea tests on early July but nothing abnormal found. My care doctor said my AMD is not caused by Diabetes in the eyes. I also have ultrasonic test on my neck but nothing abnormal found.

I have had the 1st injection of aflibercept (eylea) on July 25, 2025 but with no improvement. I'll have the second aflibercept injection on the coming August 20, 2025.

I'm now in anticipation to find natural remedy to AMD but nothing found on Internet searching.

Pls advise. Thanks in advance.

  1. Hi . Though there is no cure for macular degeneration, there are supplements doctors often prescribe as alternatives to injections for slowing the progression. Here is an article about treatments for the various types of macular degeneration that might interest you: https://maculardegeneration.net/treatment/md-types. Since you seem to be curious about what caused your AMD, I thought I would share this article with you as well: https://maculardegeneration.net/risk-factors. It discusses the risk factors for AMD. I hope this helps and that you begin to see some improvement soon. Thinking of you. - Lori (Team Member)

    1. Also diet is very important to go along with the supplements. I have had dry macular degeneration, cataracts, and dry eyes for a long time. Macular degeneration and cataracts for 18 years and dry eyes for over 40 years. My macular degeneration hasn't gotten worse and my cataracts has been a very slow progression. I am now learning to help my dry eyes. I eat nothing factory created or processed food, I eat no fast food and seldom eat out in a restaurant. I eat only real food. Fruits, vegetables, whole fat dairy, and grass fed meats. Yes I eat eggs. We don't cook with vegetable oils. Only bacon grease and olive oil. I eat very little grain and if I do it is whole or stone ground. I take omega 3 from kale for my eyes. And only low zinc AREDS2.
      I am almost 78 and never hospitalized and I don't take any prescription drugs. Honestly there are all natural ingredients better than almost all drugs from chemicals. The body reacts badly to any and anything other than all natural ingredients.

      1. Hi all,

        Please allow me to add some information re my AMD.

        I have excellent eye-sight when I was young until reaching my age of 86, before my AMD developed lately on my left eye. I don't need spectacle to read even at this age.

        About 5 months ago I saw an advertisement in MTR station posting an eye drops, which is produced in Japan, able to slow down eyes degeneration. I purchased a bottle to try. After having tried 2 bottles I feel my left-eye having blurry vision. I consulted an ophthalmologist and was diagnosed as AMD. I have already stopped using this eye-drops

        I haven't informed this incident to my ophthalmologist because this is only my suspicion.

        I have used another eye-drops for dry-eye, also produced by the same manufacturer, for more than 30 years without problem. A few drops make my eyes feeling comfortable. I'm still using this eye-drops

        Regards
