Dr. Swindle-Reilly is developing local ocular drug delivery technologies for patients with age-related macular degeneration, the third leading cause of blindness, which currently has no cure. The technology, in the form of biodegradable injectable implants, will reduce the frequency of patient treatment and improve visual outcomes.

I have advanced ARMD. It is always thrilling to hear of new technology which may be able to make life easier in the future. Heads up folks, while we pray for a better treatment we live today. Learn the necessary blind skills necessary to live well with sight loss. As you can see I am neither unable to use a computer or restricted with what I do. The only thing I cannot do for myself is drive. There are ways around that. Pray and work for future better treatment but learn to live well today.
Thank you…
I just saw this video by chance, I am very impressed with the information and the developmental work you are doing. I have AMD in my right eye and have been having those injections. Thank you very much for your video.
This is all great news!! It would be even better if we could figure out how to prevent these eye diseases in the first place. But, unfortunately, pharmaceuticals would lose a lot of money. I hate thinking this way, but the recent pandemic proved this point to me. Healthcare has become all about the money and not about health........
It's all about diet. No sugars, low carbs, no processed foods.
@@hamstersniffernot really! some patients they eat very clean non smokers and non drinkers🤷🏽♀️
@@jyotsnakothari2141what one considers clean could still be eating carbs and sugar which is in most everything we enjoy.
Thanks for your research efforts. We want these products as soon as possible and keep up the forward momentum!
TAKE TAURINE 1,000 MG CAPSULES 6,000 MG TOTAL DAILY AND AFTER 7 DAYS VISION FOR AMD WILL BEGIN REPAIR AND AFTER 30 DAYS WILL IMPROVE 100% !!!!
Where can I get it at
I have it in both eyes I hate getting the injection
Taurine is no doubt a supplement and can be bought at stores dedicated to selling vitamins,minerals and supplements. Some larger grocery stores or even mercantile stores will have special departments that sell such items..in or around their pharmacy departments. May seem odd too but Taurine is what helps cats have night vision….. I do think you should get the advice of a person who also treats people with the supplements and such as often regular doctors have no idea of how to use them. Opthamologists may know more since this is recommended for eye diseases treatments in a major way. I suggest that because the amount seems very high….and I have been treated by an MD who is also an integrative therapist.which means this MD uses both standardized medicines and the vitamins, minerals and other substances that are often already in our bodies in different amounts., Ive been in treatment of all disorders that developed in 2013, when I had breast cancer with mastectomy. It’s important that the stuff recommended is known about by whomever orders it as therapy…. So don’t guess.,,find out from someone who really knows because supplements are as effective or more so , as chemicals drugs. So it could be harm or benefit just from amounts.
@@jeffreycasto4610…see advice from Margaret j jaeger tells where to get taurine and etc.
What brand do you use?
Excellent presenter.
I’m so sad my brother who is 78 has macular degeneration and probably advanced he’s been told there’s nothing to help him. He lives in Arizona all alone. I’m in Texas and 81 and cannot visit him. Is there anything that can be done for him? I feel so bad my heart is breaking, he’s sad and lonely and going blind. He has a very sharp mind. His his memory and cognition is not affected. He’s very bright it’s just makes it sadder that he knows what’s happening to him and he can’t do anything about it. Please can’t hr be helped? He’s such a good hearted person.
It would actually be more sad if he was unaware, no? Awareness allows him to participate in treatment and to mitigate/ modify his actions and routines. God's blessings prayed for him.
Amen!! Pray this is so!!
MacuHealth or MacuShield, depending on the country you live in and an Omega 3 with a high DHA. This worked for myself and others. Perhaps you should talk with a person who is truly a macula specialist.
Love you🙏❤💞💪Im in my 70's,i will try it OMEGA 3,DHA,THANK YOU
I have AMD. Thank you for your work!
I am 59 and need help so bad!!
Same
I hope you got the help you need.
God is with you. 🙏
I live in Monrovia, Liberia, and have been diagnosed with macular degeneration in the left eye. In fact, I cannot focus with that eye. How can I access this treatment? The only thing I strive to do is to follow the diet suggested by the internet forums like yours.
0:52 no cure that YOU know of.
I hate such universally definitive statements.
😘👍
How and where can I get this in Seattle, Wa ? Thanks for your response.
Thank you Ms……….. Keep up this wonderful research. I dislike my injections every six weeks.
God bless you for your work
Yes maam thanks for this video. I have wet amd on my left eye. Had undergone injection and laser. Im interested of the tablet you mentioned. Thanks much.
Take a look at OpRegen, by Lineage Cell Therapeutics, under license to Roche Genentech, currently in a Phase IIa trial.
It's going to be revolutionary for a lot of people when it comes out.
Is it currently in use for patients ?
Is this for wet or dry macula?
Is there a test for allergic reactions to these capsules prior to implant? I seem to be extremely allergic to most medications I've taken with horrific side effects (Metoprolol, Tamoxifen, Nifedipine). Those that create crippling side effects that affect quality of life, even more than vision. I would think that once it is implanted, there is no turning back.
Always look up side effects before taking a drug
I hope you're not taking cholesterol drugs statins
Oh my good sister for you from indonesia 0:55 ❤
How can I get this in Uganda
Is this available in England?
That's what i want to know.. Crickets!...
Dear Mam, your video is incmplete unless you tell us where to get these capsule. Thanks
What is it? Some of us don't have a lot of time to listen to stuff we all heard before.
She is describing ongoing research, which is not yet available.
Exactly

Susvimo

How about grounding.with the Earth nature.or energy field from the earth can control the eye Diseases or heal. Through the earth
Lololol.
2:27 the only way?
That isn't true, is it?
Should I really trust anything else you say?
Of course diet and lifestyle changes will do nothing, right?
Tell me about axial length dangers,
Tell me about axial length shortenings.
Your drugs are only one way to do things and they aren't that great are they?
You should also mention CMV is another blindness
How can I get this
Wow. So much misinformation. First and foremost this is 17 years ago. Injections are still the treatment for the kind of MD she's referring to, which is NOT the common form of macular degeneration. Everything she is referencing only applies to the wet form, not the dry form, which only affects about 10'% of md patients. (I don't use the term AMD because I was diagnosed with drusen, the precursor of it at age 27). My first major hemorrhage was at age 49. I've had over 70 injections. I'm am legally blind although the injections have helped slow the progression. Until recently there was no treatment at all for the more common, typically much slower progressing, dry type. There is a new drug on the market now that holds potential but has some potentially severe side effects and is not yet well established. More are on the way. I find it hard to believe that someone with the background she claims doesn't know these things. I wish what she said was true but it's wrong from the beginning. Oh, it can also cause geographic atrophy, cellular death in the macula. That's what Henry Winkler is talking about in the ads currently on TV that look like public service ads. They're not; they are done by the pharmaceutical company behind the new drug I referred to. This is shameful.
What is the one Henry Winkler was promoting?
I don't recall. I really like Winkler, hear he's a super nice guy, but the ad is a bit misleading. They never say anything about it being for a pharmaceutical product. However when I looked it up online a big pharma company is responsible for the ad. I have difficulty finding things due to my vision but my retina doc told me that the company that "sponsors" the commercial is the one marketing a new treatment for geographi. atrophy, the subject of the commercial. He says it's very early days and there are a number of questions about the treatment and he won't consider it yet. Plus my disease is genetic and he said the manufacturer acknoledges it may not work at all for that.
