None of the ophtomologists I have seen gave me any advice, diet, exercise, that it develops in stages, no emotional support , in all very disapppointing. GP’s need to be educated about MD not to subscribe medication which is detrimental to MD and so need dentists to be educated.
I have been so disappointed with all the different eye doctors I have interacted with about my AMD which was diagnosed about 8-9 years ago. None have really taken the time to explain what I can expect or to offer any helpful advice or further sources of information. This online forum appears to be the only thing remotely related to self-help and I am not at all sure how to best utilize it. Any advice is welcome!
I am blessed to have a very good doctor that fully explains tests and treatment options. I am glad this website is helpful. I use the search option top left when I have any questions. The forum section is great to post a topic or question you might have. Regards, Sharon Moore patient leader I wanted to check back in with you to see how you are doing. Have you learned how to use the website? If you haven’t already, I encourage you to subscribe to the newsletter https://maculardegeneration.net/subscribe. Feel free to start a discussion in the forum section. Warmly, Sharon Moore patient leader
