We approach macular degeneration in a way that’s proactive, not reactive, by doing in-depth screenings for all kinds of ocular diseases, including AMD. We use specialized methods, like optical coherence tomography, fundus photography, and slit lamp examinations to get high resolution images and a magnified firsthand view of your inner eye. This way, we can spot AMD — even before it’s done damage — and monitor it between visits.
Individualized Management Plans
Individualized Management Plans
Our practice has never believed in simply diagnosing you and then sending you away without a detailed eye care plan. If you have AMD, we’ll learn about you and your eyes, and identify anything that poses a risk to your macula. We’ll also fold in other diet and activity recommendations to your management plan that can help you stay ahead of AMD.
Supplements
Supplements
One of the ways we treat macular degeneration is by prescribing nutraceuticals, which provide the necessary vitamins, minerals, and ingredients proven to help slow its progression and fortify your retina against damage. Our doctors know exactly which trusted supplements to recommend as part of your defense against AMD and will educate you on how they keep your eyes and vision healthy.
