STEP 1
UNDERSTAND YOUR
CONDITION

Types of ARMD

Dry
Degeneration of the rods and
cones
Formation of Drusen

Wet
Vascular leakage
Detachment of the retina

Changes in Macular
Degeneration

Distortion produced by
ARMD

Grid Testing

Causes of ARMD

Normal process of aging leads to

degenerative eye diseases
Increased levels of free radicals
High dietary intake of saturated
fats and cholesterol
Smoking
Ultraviolet light

Protect your eyes from

the sunlight

Sun light increases the risk of

developing macular degeneration
Studies have shown that people who
spend a great deal of time outdoors
are twice as likely to develop macular
degeneration
A good pair of sunglasses which block
100% of UVA and UVB and block at
least 85% of blue violet sun rays

Other possible causes

Vaccinations
Antibiotics
Heavy metal poisoning

Step2
Feast for your eyes

You should shift your diet away from meats and

dairy towards a largely vegetarian diet that
includes cold water fish and eggs
Colorful foods will give you colorful vision!
(contains carotenoids)
There is evidence that this type of diet will help in
weight reduction, reduce the risk of arteriosclerotic
vascular disease, lower blood pressure, reduce
the incidence of diabetes, and improve circulation
to the eye

Eliminate the following

Coffee
Aspirin
Margarine
Alcohol
Tobacco products

Step 3
Exercise

Fight depression
Improve confidence; increase safety
Develop kinesthetic sense
Improve cardiovascular health

Exercise- make it fun!

Trampoline
Dancing
Yoga
Water workouts
Oriental Forms of exercise
Tai Chi
QiGong

Step 4
Cope with Stress

Mind-body connection in health

and disease
Reducing stress produces a
general feeling of well being

Techniques

Deep breathing
Body relaxation
Positive affirmation
Yoga
Meditation

Step 5
Exercise and relax your
eyes

Step 6
Feed your macula

Eat colorful foods to maintain good color

vision
Two important carotenoids are lutein and
zeathanthin
They are needed to maintain the macula
lutea.
Protect the eye against photo-induced
damage
Studies show that animals deprived from
this pigment develop macular
degeneration.

Step 7
Supplement your diet

Antioxidants deactivate or
neutralize free radicals; examples
are Vitamins C, E, beta-carotene
and the minerals selenium and
zinc.
Average American diet is deficient
in antioxidants.
One cannot receive high enough
doses of antioxidants from diet.

Macular Degeneration
Nutritional Formula

Carefully selected combination of

antioxidants, vitamins, minerals,
herbs, and amino acids designed
to provide all the needed nutritional
supplements for optimal eye health
Also contains lutein, bilberry and
ginko biloba

Step 9
Chelation Therapy:
Improve
circulation
to
the
Hardening of the arteries and
eye free radical damage contribute to

macular degeneration
Chelation improves blood flow to
the eye, allowing the retina to
receive more oxygen and
nutrients
It also reduces the effects of
atherosclerosis

Mechanism of Chelation

Removes toxic heavy metals from

the body
Inhibits free radical activity in the
body (Acts as a powerful
antioxidant)
Removes excess calcium/ plaque
from blood vessels and improves
blood flow

Affinity of EDTA for

metal ions

chromium
iron
mercury
copper
lead
zinc
cadmium

cobalt
aluminum
iron
manganese
calcium
magnesium

Chelation Therapy

Many reports of patients who have an

improvement of vision after Chelation
therapy
The InsideLine has reported in many
instances, IV Chelation therapy has been
known to correct and reverse AMD.
Dr. Harold Byer has reported good
results in using Chelation for macular
degeneration.

Chelation Therapy

Dr. Morton Walker in his book,

The Chelation Way states the
following: Chelation therapy
appears to bring back the
circulation to such affected vision
and improves it (macular
degeneration) better than any
other therapy now available- better
even than eye surgery.

Why Is Chelation Therapy

Not More Widespread?

Chelation threatens to substantially

reduce the cost of health care
(Profits)
No potential profit for the
pharmaceutical industry
Not a big money-maker compared
to open heart surgery.
Not covered by most Insurance.

Step 10
Homeopathy:Heal from within

You may honestly feel grateful

that homeopathy survived the
attempts of the Allopathists to
destroy it.
Mark Twain

What is Homeopathy?
Small doses give big results

It is not Herbal or Vitamin Therapy.

Developed by Dr. Samuel
Hahnemann nearly 200 years ago
It has stood the test of time and
has widespread acceptance.

The Law of Similars

Homeo-Similar, Pathos-Suffering
Medications which cause
symptoms in a healthy individual
will cure those symptoms in a
diseased person.

Homeopathic Like
Therapy in Conventional
Medicine
Modern allergy treatment

Immunization
Radiation therapy
Digitalis
Ritalin
Nitroglycerine
Gold salts

The Homeopathic Evaluation

Based on the understanding and

respect for the uniqueness of each
individual
A Homeopathic remedy is based on the
whole person looking at the mental,
emotional and physical patterns.
Ten people with macular degeneration
will each receive a different
homeopathic remedy

Step 11
Microcurrent Stimulation:
Wake
up your
eyesSam Snead
Received
press when

had marked improvement in his

vision
Similar to a TENS unit used by
many people for relief of muscular
pain.
Also used by surgeons to improve
wound healing and increase blood
flow for transplanted tissue

The bio-electric body

Acupuncture is based on bioelectric flow in the body

Our cells are like batteries and
they need electrical stimulation for
repair and regeneration
MCS focuses this energy to the
diseased area of the eye to
stimulate the healing of the retina.

Mechanism of Microcurrent

Increase circulation
Increase cell activity
Reducing scar tissue

the following:
Increase in intracellular protein
Increase in glycogen uptake
Increase of ATP concentrations by
300 to 500%

Results of MCS

Up to 150% improvement in some

subsets of patients with the dry form of
macular degeneration.
As much as 58% improvement with the
more advanced wet form.
Our results indicate over 70% of
patients have an improvement of vision

Treatment protocol

Involves periodic administration of pulses of

small amounts of currents at very low
voltages delivered through electrodes in
contact with the skin at key points around
the eye
Patients receive 8 treatments over a 4 days
and then 4 to 5 times daily with a home unit.

Advantages of the
OMCS Unit

A double channel unit that will create 4 different

frequencies, which in theory is 4 times the healing
power of a single channel unit.
Digital System; computer measuring skin resistance,
instead of feedback loop, erratic current flow.
40 microamps for optimum delivery at the cellular
level
Automatic easier to use
Pin Hole glasses.
No feeling of current or tingling.

Treatment protocol

Macular degeneration treatment involves

periodic administration of small amounts of
square-wave direct currents at very low
voltages delivered through electrodes in
contact with the skin at key points around
the eye
