Connie, I think Maico is referring to Lucentis, which is a treatment for the wet condition (injected into the eye) the FDA approved with in the past year or so. This was not available when my Mother first developed her problem. However, while damage is not reversable, it can/is suposed to arrest further damage. My Mother started injections as soon as it was approved and she did not have any further damage in that eye. So we have a treatment option now. (I take Occuvite daily (Lutein is the key vitamin), as a precaution and keep up with regular eye exams.)
