How long has it been since you had those pretty eyes checked?



Macular degeneration is a disorder that affects the macula (the central part of the retina of the eyeball) causing decreased vision and unfortunately, possible loss of your central vision.

When the macula degenerates, people experience blurring or darkness in the center of their vision. Some symptoms include:

  • The need for increasingly bright light when reading
  • Increasing blurriness
  • A decrease in the brightness of colors
  • Difficulty recognizing faces
  • Haziness


Of course, these diminishing factors affect your everyday life: reading, writing, driving and recognizing faces.

The good news is that you do not have to lose your vision with macular degeneration. In fact, there are healthy, natural steps you can take to slow down macular degeneration and help preserve your vision. There are available nutrients within reach and even certain lifestyle changes that can help you preserve your vision.
