MacuMira: A Breakthrough Treatment for Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss among adults, particularly affecting those over the age of 45. Dry AMD, the most common form, leads to a gradual decline in central vision, impacting daily activities such as reading, driving, and recognizing faces. Traditional management strategies have focused on lifestyle modifications and nutritional supplements to slow disease progression, but these approaches do not restore lost vision.

Introducing MacuMira

MacuMira stands as the first clinically proven and Health Canada-approved treatment specifically for dry AMD in Canada and North America. This non-invasive therapy offers a safe and effective means to not only halt but also reverse vision loss associated with dry AMD.

How MacuMira Works

The treatment involves delivering a patented microcurrent through the patient's closed eyelids, targeting the Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) cells. This stimulation enhances mitochondrial ATP production, which is crucial for cellular energy and function. As a result, the therapy promotes the clearance of harmful waste products like drusen and lipofuscin that accumulate in the retina and contribute to AMD progression.

Treatment Protocol

• Loading Phase: Patients undergo four 32-minute sessions within the first ten days.
• Maintenance Phase: To sustain visual improvements, a single 32-minute session is recommended every 2–3 months.

The procedure is painless, and patients often report noticeable improvements in vision shortly after the initial treatments.

Clinical Efficacy

In landmark clinical trials, all participants receiving MacuMira therapy experienced visual improvements. Notably, nearly half of the patients gained 10 or more letters on the ETDRS visual acuity chart. These benefits were maintained throughout the study period, underscoring the therapy's potential for long-term vision restoration.

Safety and Accessibility

MacuMira is administered exclusively by certified eye care professionals in approved clinics, ensuring both safety and efficacy. The non-invasive nature of the treatment means there are no injections, surgeries, or systemic medications involved, minimizing the risk of adverse effects.
