Valeda Light Delivery System
A new option for patients with Dry AMD
Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive condition that can cause vision loss over time. While there is no cure, early treatment can make a difference.
The Valeda Light Delivery System is the first and only treatment shown to improve vision in patients with Dry AMD.Using specific wavelengths of light (photobiomodulation), Valeda helps boost energy production in retinal cells to support healthier vision.
Benefits may include:
Major blood vessels travel within the retina. High blood-sugar levels from diabetes can damage these blood vessels, causing them to leak fluid, blood or lipids. This damage is called diabetic retinopathy. The leakage affects the retina’s ability to detect and transmit images to the brain. As diabetic retinopathy progresses, your body begins growing new blood vessels in the retina to overcome/replace the vessels that have been damaged by diabetes. These new vessels are not normal and may bleed inside the eye causing vision blockage and form scar tissue that pulls it away from its proper location. This is called a tractional retinal detachment and can lead to blindness. Early diagnosis and treatment of diabetic retinopathy can help prevent vision loss, but it’s equally imperative that you maintain control of your blood sugar if you have diabetes to reduce the risk of further complications.
- Clearer, sharper vision
- Improved ability to see colors and details
- Support for long-term eye health
If you or a loved one has Dry AMD, ask your doctor if Valeda is right for you.
