MacuMira vs. Traditional Dry AMD Management: What Eye Care Professionals Need to Know

Delivering a dry AMD diagnosis has always meant offering limited options to your patients. You could provide nutritional guidance, recommend monitoring tools, and schedule follow-up appointments, but you couldn’t address the vision loss they're already experiencing. MacuMira changes this reality by offering the first Health Canada-authorized treatment that can improve visual function in dry AMD…

Is There a Dry AMD Treatment?

Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects millions of adults, gradually impairing central vision and impacting their ability to read, drive, and recognize faces. AMD is a progressive condition that stems from deterioration of the macula, the part of the retina responsible for sharp, detailed vision. The search for a targeted, proactive dry AMD treatment has…

Real Patient Experiences

“The treatment itself was wonderful; I was not fearful at all. I walked out from my first treatment, and I could see the TVs and the actual printing on the ads.
I couldn’t believe it, I could see across the street, I could see in the other person’s living room. I wanted to be able to drive to places and get to places, and I can do that now.
I felt self-limited because I knew my sight was disintegrating, and now I’m going out. I’m going to my grandkids’ soccer games, and I can see who is who.”

Edith – Alberta

“After my first session, excellent, I took my phone, I could not believe how clear and bright everything was. Just try the treatment, because for me it does wonders.
It was relaxing, no pain whatsoever, none. Everything is just clear!
I do a lot of knitting and crocheting, and now I have no problem; everything is much clearer, much easier. I’m not scared that I’m going to lose my eyesight. I am so much more relaxed.”

Ingrid – Alberta

“When I took the headset off, it was so much brighter in the room, I just couldn’t believe it. Everything blurred before, but things were sharper already. I’m very pleased with what I can see. I can even see the hummingbird at my feeder.
It’s brightened me up quite a bit. I am very excited about the rest of my life now. I am just so pleased with this treatment, I am over the moon.
We went out for dinner, and I could read the fortune in my fortune cookie. Before, people’s faces had halos around them. I could not recognize them, now I know who they are.”

Frances – Ontario

“Life before MacuMira was pretty scary for me. Before doing this treatment, I couldn’t see anything on somebody except the outline of their hair.
I had serious heartaches every day, now I don’t
It’s painless, nothing. For 30 minutes? Why wouldn’t anyone do it?
That’s how I knew it was working, because it wasn’t that prominent black mark in the centre of my eye. I’m not full of fear anymore, I’m not worried that I’ll wake up tomorrow and not be able to see.
I found before I was already worried, I was always afraid and scared – and now I’m not. You have to go for it, you got to try it. I’m proof that it’s working.”

Laura – Ontario

“I was 10 points away from losing my driver’s license. For me, MacuMira was a godsend, quite frankly.
Not invasive in any way, it was relaxing for me. I didn’t have any problem with it at all. I couldn’t take the chance not to do it, if you know what I mean.
There was a moment after my first treatment where I was able to read street signs a lot more clear. When they had reviewed my vision and I had dropped 20 points, I thought, this is well worth the money spent.
It was emotionally amazing to me to have that clarity again. The biggest change is the lack of anxiety of losing my driver’s license; emotionally, it was very freeing.
I thought if this changes anything, I’m in. If this can change your life and your ability for independence for a little bit longer, it’s worth
the money, every penny! The biggest thing is the feeling of independence, and being able to drive for a lot longer than I thought I was going to be able to. It was a freeing experience, and I’m looking forward to continuing my MacuMira treatments.”
