What is Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)?

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common eye problem that affects people over 50. It damages the macula, the part of the retina responsible for clear, central vision. This can make it hard to see things directly in front of you.

There are two main types of AMD:

  1. Dry AMD (Non-Neovascular AMD): This is the most common type of AMD. It happens when the light-sensitive cells in the macula break down slowly over time. This can cause blurred vision or a blind spot in the center of your vision.

2. Wet AMD (Neovascular AMD): This type involves abnormal blood vessels growing under the macula. These vessels can leak blood and fluid, quickly damaging the macula and causing blurry or distorted central vision.

Why Choose LJ Eye Institute – Patiala for Age-Related Macular Degeneration Treatment?

At LJ Eye Institute – Patiala, we use advanced imaging tools like Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Fluorescein Angiography (FA) to diagnose and track AMD early. This helps us catch and treat issues before they get worse.

We offer targeted treatments like Photodynamic Therapy (PDT), which uses a special light-sensitive medicine and laser to destroy problem blood vessels while protecting healthy tissue.

For more severe cases of AMD, we perform minimally invasive surgeries, such as vitrectomy, to remove scar tissue and fix retinal damage, aiming to improve your vision.

Are the treatments at LJEI up-to-date?

 

Yes, we employ the most current techniques and technologies available in eye care.

 

Does LJEI offer treatments for diabetic retinopathy?

 

 

Yes, we offer specialized treatments including intravitreal injections and laser therapies.

 

Symptoms to Watch Out For AMD?

Some of the signs and symptoms of dry and wet macular degeneration are the same or similar. They include dark spots in your vision and distortions or bends in what would normally be straight lines.

One of the main differences is that symptoms of dry AMD come on gradually, if they’re noticed at all, while symptoms of wet AMD appear suddenly — although they may be preceded by symptoms of dry AMD.

Signs and symptoms of dry AMD, include the following:

  • Smudges or dark spots appear in your vision, especially in the morning
  • Colors appear faded
  • Bright lights are irritating
  • You have difficulty adjusting your vision when you go from dark to light environments
  • Straight lines appear to bend
  • When you read, words tend to disappear
Signs and symptoms of wet AMD
  • Straight lines appear to bend.
  • You have blurry central vision or a blind spot anywhere in your field of vision.
  • You have difficulty adjusting your vision when you go from dark to light environments.
  • You have difficulty seeing fine detail without a very bright light.
  • You experience trouble with face recognition.
What types of eye surgeries are performed at LJEI?

We perform a range of surgeries, including cataract surgery, corneal transplants, and pterygium surgery.

Is LJEI equipped for handling retinal detachment cases?

Yes, we have state-of-the-art facilities for treating retinal detachment, including vitrectomy.

What age range is most affected by macular degeneration?
Health care providers are not sure what causes AMD. The condition is rare before age 55. It occurs mostly in people 75 years or older.
What does age-related macular degeneration lead to?
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a disease that affects a person’s central vision. AMD can result in severe loss of central vision, but people rarely go blind from it. Risk factors for AMD include being 50 and older, smoking, having high blood pressure and eating a diet high in saturated fat.
What kind of follow-up care does LJEI provide?

We offer thorough follow-up care to ensure optimal recovery and monitor progress.

What sets LJEI apart from other eye clinics in Patiala?
