ARMD (Age-Related Macular Degeneration)

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD) affects the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp and detailed vision. It is one of the leading causes of vision loss in people over 50. ARMD can make it difficult to read, recognize faces, or see fine details.

There are two types — Dry ARMD and Wet ARMD. The dry form develops slowly, while the wet form progresses rapidly due to abnormal blood vessel growth under the retina.

While ARMD has no complete cure, early diagnosis and treatment can significantly slow its progression. Advanced options such as anti-VEGF injections, laser therapy, and nutritional supplementation help maintain functional vision.

Our specialists focus on preserving central vision through regular monitoring, customized treatment, and patient education. We also emphasize lifestyle management — including a balanced diet rich in antioxidants, quitting smoking, and protecting eyes from UV exposure.

At our clinic, we provide personalized ARMD care with the latest diagnostic and treatment technologies. Early intervention makes a real difference — helping patients retain independence and visual quality for years to come.
