Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD) is a medical condition that results in a loss of vision in the center of the visual field (the macula) because of damage to the retina. ARMD ranges from mild changes with no decrease in vision to abnormalities severe enough to result in the loss of all "straight" ahead vision. Macular degeneration does not cause total blindness because the remaining and undamaged parts of the retina around the macula continue to provide "side" (perepheral) vision. Age-Related Macular Degeneration is the most common cause of irreversible vision loss in Americans over the age of 60. It is estimated that 10 million Americans will experience this age-related visual impairment. What are the symptoms of Macular Degeneration? Symptoms of macular degeneration usually develop gradually. People with ARMD may first notice a blurring of central vision, especially during tasks such as reading, watching television or sewing. Also, straight lines may appear distorted or warped. As the condition progresses, blind spots may form within your central visual field. In most cases, if one eye has macular degeneration, the other eye will develop it. How is Macular Shield AREDS 2 plus Complete Multivitamin different from Macular Shield AREDS 2? Macular Shield AREDS 2 plus Complete Multivitamin is the same improved AREDS 2 formula with the same powerful antioxidant protection for your eyes, plus a complete daily multivitamin. It contains Advanced EyeShield, a proprietary blend of lutein, zeaxanthin and other key ingredients for added macular protection and whole body wellness. Unlike the majority of supplements available for macular degeneration, Macular Shield AREDS 2 plus Complete Multivitamin contains the correct amounts of ingredients at the levels proven to be beneficial at slowing the progression of macular degeneration. In most cases, you would have to take several different supplements to equal what is in one bottle of this product. What is a good treatment option for Macular Degeneration? Although there is no cure for macular degeneration, there was a major clinical trial sponsored by the National Eye Institute called the Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS). This study proved a daily supplement containing a unique formulation of high-dose nutrients and other ingredients can slow the progression of macular degeneration and reduce the risk of developing advanced ARMD.
