Episode #12 - Age-Related Macular Degeneration: Understanding the Condition & Ayurvedic Approach

In this episode, Dr. P.K. Santhakumari, Chief Physician at Matha Ayurveda Eye Hospital, explains about Age-related Macular Degeneration.Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a condition that affects the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp and detailed vision. Over time, it can lead to gradual changes in central vision, making activities like reading and recognizing faces more difficult.From an Ayurvedic perspective, a systematic approach is followed with emphasis on supporting retinal function, improving microcirculation, and maintaining the health of the tissues involved in vision. The focus is not only on managing symptoms, but also on addressing underlying factors that may contribute to progression.Understanding the condition and its progression helps in setting realistic expectations and planning appropriate care.If you would like to understand whether this approach is suitable for your condition, you may discuss your case with our doctors here:https://zurl.co/YRq5KFor more details about our approach to holistic eye care and personalized treatments, visit: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Matha Ayurveda Eye Hospital⁠⁠⁠⁠.
