Studies Bring Macular Degeneration into Clearer Focus
For the 76 million baby boomers born between 1946 and 1964, the fear of facing permanent vision loss due to Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is very real. And new studies show while AMD and the threat of pending blindness can lead directly to depression and suicide. Macular Health provides breakthrough nutrition proven effective at fighting age-related vision loss
(PRWEB) February 11, 2008 -- A recent article published by the AMD Alliance International (AMDAI) shows that the impact of vision loss due to age related macular degeneration (AMD) on patients’ quality of life and psychological well being is comparable to that of cancer or coronary heart disease. This publication also shows that diagnosis of AMD and the threat of blindness increases severe depression and risk of suicide. Now, Macular Health (www.MacularHealth.com) provides the nutrition needed to fight vision loss.
In a study conducted with the help of a Retina Surgeon and Macular Degeneration Specialist from the UAB Callahan Eye Foundation Hospital in Birmingham, Alabama, a breakthrough new supplement -- Macular Health -- was developed to fight AMD. Patients were placed on this new supplement for twelve weeks. Subjects showed definitive vision improvement. Many of the patients in the study had a 16% improvement in retina function and regained as many as 1-3 lines on the eye chart. (See attached support documentation for additional details).
In November 2006, the American Academy of Ophthalmology recognized this study as the first documenting improvement in eye health in patients with AMD The MERG (Multifocal Electroretinogram) was used to gauge the overall health of the Macula before and after using the Macular Health eye supplement. The results were clear.
“I believe Macular Health is the best product available. This is the first time in my career I’ve seen patients with better vision,” says John O. Mason, III, M.D. a Birmingham, Alabama eye surgeon who has been treating AMD patients for more than 14 years.
AMD patient Mr. Dill comments since starting the Macular Health Supplement, he has regained some of his lost vision. Mrs. Dill stated, “We’ve been so impressed with the results of the Macular Health supplement that I made copies of the information and have been distributing it to all of our friends and relatives.”
Another AMD patient Barney Headley states, “I would highly recommend Macular Health to anyone who has AMD. It has been nothing short of a miracle and I can now see to read small print and also drive my car again.
