Was looking for some feedback on the Supplement VPMAX-9

Can you give us more detail about this product like where it was offered and for what conditions? I did research on various eye vitamins for macular degeneration and this one is not familiar. Was the recommended AREDS-2 formula used? Last question - Did a retina specialist recommend it to you? We might be able to help you if you provide additional information. Linda Hoopes, Advocate

Although good eye vitamins are important and something we can do that MAY keep MD from progressing by up to 25% (my ophthalmologist comment to me), they cannot CURE macular degeneration. If that were true, none of us would be on this site because almost all of us take eye vitamins. The claims of a cure - often vitamins that are way overpriced - made on the internet and Facebook appeal to our vulnerability & fear of losing our site. I’m sure if there was a cure, at least one of the multiple Retina Specialist we go to would know about it. I have a neighbor who pays a monthly fee for supplements that’s supposed to “cure” or improve her AMD. She has seen no improvement but keeps paying because she doesn’t want to give up hope. That makes me angry and sad to see her being taken advantage of for so long. It’s unconscionable. PLEASE DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH - BE YOUR OWN ADVOCATE & DON’T FALL FOR MARKETING HYPE. An excellent place to get the straight facts is right here on www.maculardegeneration.net. We are not selling anything, certainly not false hope! Linda Hoopes, Advocate
