STEP 1UNDERSTAND 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 5Exercise and relax your eyes

Step 6Feed 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
Vision Sublingual Spray
Vitamin B3 Vitamin C Vitamin E Zinc Zeaxanthin Billberry Lutein MSM
Eyebright, L-taurine L-glycine Alpha lipoic acid Glutathione Vinpocetine Ginko Bibola Stevia
Step 8 Three important herbs for your vision
Bilberry Ginko Biloba Eye Bright
Step 9 Chelation Therapy: Improve circulation to the eye
“Hardening of the arteries” and 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 11Microcurrent Stimulation: Wake up your eyes
Received press when Sam Snead 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 bio-electric 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
Kaada B 1982 Vasodilation Induced By Transcutaneous Nerve Stimulation In Peripheral Ischemia (Raynauds Phenomenon And Diabetic Polyneuropathy). European Heart Journal 3:303-314
4 patients with Raynauds increased in the skin temperature patients had relief from their pain.
Kaada B 1983 Promoted Healing Of Chronic Ulceration By Transcutaneous Nerve Stimulation. (TNS) VASA 12: 262-269
10 patients with chronic leg ulcers which had resisted the standard medical approaches.
After the TENS treatment 8 of the 10 patients had successful healing of their leg ulcers.
Kjartansson J, Lundberg T 1990 Effects Of Electrical Nerve Stimulation (ENS) In Ischemic Tissue. Scandinavian Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Hand Surgery 24: 129-134
20 patients with poor circulation after plastic surgery.
After TENS treatment the skin showed a significant increase in blood flow.
N Cheng et al: The effects of electric current on ATP generation, protein synthesis and membrane transport in rat skin. Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research 1982: 264-272.
50 to 500 microamperes produce 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

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
4 day treatment protocol Treatment with a home unit twice daily
