Translocation of the Retina
It is a surgical procedure that detaches a portion of the retina, including a diseased portion, and reattaches it to a healthier portion of the eye. This is currently the only treatment option for wet macular degeneration, and it is most effective in the earliest stages of the disease, when the retina has not been substantially damaged. Although surgical outcomes can vary, some patients experience vision improvement, while others may experience no change or even deterioration.
Those who underwent surgery in the early stages of AMD experienced positive long-term effects, and eye function was preserved for an extended period of time after surgery. Overall, the treatment has yielded varied results, with some patients responding favourably while others have not.
