Pochic degeneration: Causes, symptoms and treatment
Age -related macular degeneration under the sponsorship of age -related macular minor -AAMD is the most common reason for the loss of acute vision under the age of 50 years. The macula is an area in the middle of the retina responsible for the central vision, the accurate vision of reading, in management, in the face of the face and in every other accurate purpose. Tennx images contain the dry image and the wet image, and according to estimates, 10% – 20% of total patients with a wet form are the image responsible for 90% of cases of severe vision loss due to the macular degeneration associated with age, such as in certain cases also occurring in the vision of the dry image, but with a lower distribution. Symptoms of degenerative degeneration, the first symptom of the disease in a dry image is the prevalence of transparent cramps in the eye, which is yellow points in the vicinity of the place on the bottom of the eye. These lesions develop as new blood vessels of the choroid (choroid) grow under the retina, where they are spread through rifts in the bruch’s membrane, which is a layer of connective tissue between the retina and the grille to the under the retina, later the tissue of a scar is formed that replaces the retina tissue. There are usually no symptoms of the disease in its dry form, but in the form of a wet disease there is generally a central vision injury that occurs as a place or distortion of the central vision, where patients see a mini -image or other size in each eye, and in rare times are also possible to prevent visual hallucinations. The causes and factors of the risk of degenerative macro diseases are the most important risk factor, but there is also a relationship of family history. Complications of macro -degeneration, a severe loss of central vision can occur quickly at about 12% of patients who had a modern disease in one eye, and 50% of patients who had a recent appearance in both eyes were partial blindness within five years after the beginning of the disease. Although the disease does not cause complete blindness, it leads to limiting patients in daily actions, such as: reading, watching TV, distinguishing faces, and problems with the spatial orientation in the street and in unknown places. Diagnosis of macro -degeneration The diagnosis of age -related macular degeneration depends on the examination of the eye bottom by eye endoscope, as well as filming with fluorescein -angiography injection, which can be detected by a new blood vessel tissue. In the eye endoscopy examination, if observed while lifting the layers of the bottom of the eye, the presence of blood or fatty deposits below the retina or below the layer of the retinal epithelium under it, it should be suspected that the presence of abnormal blood vessels. The treatment of macro diseases has recently published many major research results, indicating the effectiveness of vitamins and anti -oxidants to prevent the transformation of the disease in its dry form to the disease in its wet form, and this is in fact the first time it is proven that nutritional supplements are effective in obstructing the development of macular degeneration. Degeneration -degeneration in the early age is decisive and fate to convert the patient to a gymnastics ophthalmologist at the early stage, so that it is possible to reduce the possibilities of acute decrease in visual ability. In the past, the only treatment that has been proven effectively in audited research is laser treatment, but laser therapy was possible in only a small part of patients, but the modern treatment that has developed over the past year, and it is a great achievement in the treatment of macular degeneration associated with age is a dynamic photo therapy – PDT where this is also a performance and not. Prevention of macular degeneration to prevent the disease should follow: maintaining normal blood pressure and controlling other medical conditions. Exercise regularly. Wear sunglasses and hats when you are outside. Perform regular eye controls. Consult a doctor if you notice the vision changes.
