Macular Degeneration Surgery Waters MI

Are you looking for macular degeneration surgery Waters MI?

Vision is a precious gift that we all must protect, especially as we age. There are a number of age related conditions of the eye that if left untreated, may cause serious vision loss and eventual blindness. Macular degeneration is one of the more common age-related conditions of the eye that primarily affect adults over the age of 50. While it is one of the leading causes of blindness in that age group, there are treatments, such as macular degeneration surgery, that can slow down and possibly reverse some of the damage it causes. People who develop macular degeneration begin to suffer from central vision loss while still retaining much of their peripheral vision. This condition may make it difficult to read, recognize faces or drive a car but since the peripheral vision generally remains intact, the patient may still be able to engage work or other normal activities. Regular exams with an ophthalmologist, especially as we age, can catch conditions of the eye before serious damage is done. And while there is no cure for this eye disease, macular degeneration surgery may slow its progression.

If you live in one of Northern Michigan’s communities, like Waters, you can appreciate the beauty that’s all around you. Waters is a small rural community with nearby lakes, rivers, and streams, forests, golf courses, and all forms of wildlife. It’s a place where people come to enjoy their favorite recreational activities all year round. If you take your eyesight for granted, think about missing out on witnessing the next fall season where cities, like Waters, provide some of the most spectacular fall colors in the state. Visiting an eye doctor regularly can help protect your vision and allow you to fully live the life you enjoy. If at any time you experience symptoms with your vision after the age of 50, it’s vital to consult with your ophthalmologists to rule out the possibility of macular degeneration. If your doctor determines you have macular degeneration, there are a number of therapies and treatments available to you that include vitamin therapy and macular degeneration surgery. Technology is moving fast and new research is giving hope to millions of macular degeneration patients.
