Hey, pucker up. We got clients incoming.

Not just a Htfle squeak Pucker up and blow

Go flight. All right, ladies and gentlemen, it's pucker time.

Okay, now I'm going to ask you to pucker up.

Pucker up big and lean in just a little bit, okay?

These represent what we see in people retina dispigmentosa, age related macular degeneration.

So what happens when a person gets a retinal degenerative disease like macular degeneration?

My data indicates that I've got about average risk for developing macular degeneration, a kind of blindness.

Macular degeneration, often age related macular degeneration (AMD or ARMD), is a medical condition that usually affects older adults and results in a loss of vision in the center of the visual field (the macula) because of damage to the retina.

Even macular edema, which may cause vision loss more rapidly, may not have any warning signs for some time.

In many forms of blindness, like retinitis pigmentosa, or macular degeneration, the photoreceptor cells have atrophied or been destroyed.

Not the kind I get from Joey or the Madison Avenue highdomes who say gesundheit before I even pucker up to sneeze.

Exposure to sunlight, especially blue light Evidence is conflicting as to whether exposure to sunlight contributes to the development of macular degeneration.

And she told me the nurses hadn't mentioned this that she was blind, that she had been completely blind from macular degeneration for five years.

Today, four decades later, such substances have been used to treat more than 10 million people with neovascular diseases such as macular degeneration and many different forms of cancer.

and many more worldwide who are blind or are facing blindness due to diseases of the retina, diseases like macular degeneration, and there's little that can be done for them.

Macular edema occurs when fluid and protein deposits collect on or under the macula of the eye (a yellow central area of the retina) and causes it to thicken and swell (edema).

There are 10 million people in the U.S. and many more worldwide who are blind or are facing blindness due to diseases of the retina, diseases like macular degeneration, and there's little that can be done for them.

So what happens when a person gets a retinal degenerative disease like macular degeneration? What happens is is that, the front end cells die, the photoreceptors die, and over time, all the cells and the circuits that are connected to them, they die too.

The only randomized clinical trial to demonstrate a benefit for lutein in macular degeneration was a small study, in which the authors concluded that visual function is improved with lutein alone or lutein together with other nutrients and also that more study was needed.
