There is now a powerful new biofeedback mechanism call MP-1 biofeedback for treatment of macular degeneration. A recent study published in Applied Psychological Biofeedback has shown it can improve acuity, reading ability and fixation in patients with macular degeneration!! Results were measures after ten treatments of 10 minute each!
Often I hear patients with macular degeneration state if only the blurred spot could be moved to the side. Then I could see! Well the MP-1 does exactly this. It helps train your brain develop a new central focus eliminating the tendency to always focus on the blurred spot.
“I have the dry form of ARMD in my left eye had it produced a hole in my vision, severely restricting my ability to read and drive. After three MP-1 biofeedback sessions I am able to utilize a newly learned focus which greatly facilitates both these activities in terms of vision clarity, acuity and coordination. This is truly remarkable since the retina specialists I had consulted in the past led me to believe that there was no hope for such improvement.” – B. Green, Denver, CO
Training is begun by simple ten minute exercises that encourage the visual system and brain to begin to use this new PRL (preferred retinal focus). The original study was done once week for 10 weeks. In our Study we will be comparing two groups . The first group will have one treatment a week for 10 weeks . The second group we will accelerate the time by having patients do two treatments a day for 5 days. Out preliminary results indicate that this might be just as effective.
