Macular degeneration is a neurodegenerative ocular disorder that affects the eyes and causes blurred or loss of vision in the center of the visual field. It is characterized by blind spots in the field of vision, visual distortions and inability to see in low light conditions. Some of the commonly used therapeutic techniques for macular degeneration includes anti-angiogenic drugs, photodynamic laser therapies, contact lenses and transitional lenses. Laser therapy involves the insertion of specialized contact lenses into the affected are of the eye, which are sealed by lasers along with the blood vessels. Anti-angiogenic drugs are used for preventing blockages and leakages in the blood vessels. Timely treatment of macular degeneration treatment can aid in enhancing vision and minimizing the risks of developing chronic blindness.
