Initial Course of Treatment includes:

  • 4 treatments per week for 2 weeks at which time you will be evaluated for improvement.
  • If improvement is detected then additional treatments will be performed for another 8-10 visits followed by another visual evaluation at which time a suitable maintenance program will be established to maintain improved visual acuity.

The following areas will be discussed to ensure maximum results are obtained, as well as maintained

Maintenance Treatments               Herbal/Nutriceutical Supplementation

 The progression of vision loss can be slowed but should not be considered a cure.  Continued care and support to the eyes and body is crucial.  Results vary greatly between patients based on their age, overall health, and length of time they have had the disease.
