Types of Macular Degeneration

Sharon Hayes began to notice changes in her sighted woman, but she neglected it. But one day, she played card games with friends, and this problem can no longer be ignored. Finally, the friend ordered her to go to the doctor to find out what is wrong. I saw a doctor and found wet macular degeneration in my left eye. Unfortunately, because the disease progresses very quickly, this eye can not be treated, but doctors treat this eye because her right eye is progressing more slowly, different forms of disease can do.

Macular degeneration is a major cause of vision loss in people over the age of 60. Based on this there are two types: wet macular degeneration and dry macular degeneration. Moist macular degeneration is more advanced and accounts for 90% of severe vision loss. When someone suffers from moist macular degeneration, abnormal blood vessels appear under the retina and the macula. These abnormal blood vessels leak from the variety of liquids, sometimes bleeding, which can lead to mass macula. This lump completely destroyed the central vision of the person. Fortunately, a treatment was found in the early stages of wet macular degeneration. The top three are injection, photodynamic therapy, photocoagulation.

'What is macular degeneration? There are two main types - wet macular degeneration and dry macular degeneration. According to reports, most cases in the world are dry macular degeneration and in all cases of dry macular degeneration only wet macular degeneration. Macular degeneration occurs mainly in people over the age of 50 and is normally diagnosed at the stage of progression. Macular degeneration manifests mainly in three stages. They are early AMD (age-related macular degeneration), intermediate AMD and progressive AMD. At the initial stage, it is difficult to diagnose macular degeneration because there are no obvious symptoms other than yellow deposits beneath the retina. This is the reason why we have to conduct eye checks on a regular basis. There is no obvious symptom at the intermediate stage. The only way to detect macular degeneration at this stage is by eye examination.

There are two kinds of macular degeneration. Juvenile macular degeneration affects the central vision of infants. It occurs in the macula or in the center of the retina. The retina is a place to distinguish by reading color. The main symptom of adolescent macular degeneration is a loss of vision. Many of the symptoms of macular degeneration are varied. Only one eye may lose sight, but the other eye is perfectly normal. The vision is declining. This means that the macula does not provide the clearest field of view. The retina can be used in the surroundings, but it is not as sensitive as the macula. There is also visual distortion. Retinal damage can cause visual variation due to stretching. Several other symptoms are illusory with blind spots, strange observations, light and shadows, photophobia, excellent night vision, color vision, sensitivity of peripheral vision, depth perception
