EARLY WARNING SIGNS FOR AMD REVEALED

Eating plenty of leafy green vegetables, particularly raw spinach and curly kale, can reduce your chances of developing Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of blindness in the over 50's, believe Cambridge Optometrists.   Cutting smoking is also a major factor in protecting yourself against AMD, which every week causes 300 people in the UK to loose their sight. If you have a family history of AMD, or would like to know the condition of your macula, and the vital pigment lutein that protects the retina, an easy test is now available from one of the first practices in the country to invest in new diagnostic technology.

Screening takes just five minutes at DH Thomas Optometrists using a new macular pigment screener, the Tinsley Mpod.   AMD is set to rise significantly with the ageing population and the opportunity for this additional screening is expected to win considerable favour - "much as we have become aware of cholesterol levels and the importance of monitoring and controlling them, we expect to see the same levels of awareness developing in relation to the density and absorption spectrum of the protective macula pigment," said David Thomas.
