Speaking on the occasion Dr.Kasu Prasad Reddy – Founder & Mentor, Maxivision Eye Hospital Group, said, ARMD is a condition wherein if you would imagine the eye like a camera with a lens in the front to focus and a film in the back for processing the picture, the film part of the eye is the Retina which has two parts – central retina and peripheral retina. The central retina is called the Macula and is responsible for central vision. When you directly look at people or paper, Macula is primarily responsible to see sharply whether it is near or distant. This macula in some people degenerates and loses its ability to focus sharply as they become older,and in these people even if a cataract operation is done, the central vision remains to be defective. Therefore, as it is related to age problem, it is called Age Related Macular Degeneration or ARMD. For the 1st time in India an Indian company the Care group India, of Baroda in Gujarat has produced a lens that was invented jointly by Dr. Bobby Qureshi of London along with Prof. Pablo Artal of Murcia University and Care group india. They have produced a lens called IOL AMD. The ability of the lens is such and the optics are designed in such a way that the image we see is focused into the peripheral part of the deceased macula, so that the patient gets improvement in the ability to see the near and the distance.
