While there is no proven treatment for macular degeneration, especially when it is in the dry form, laser photocoagulation therapy has been seen to be effective in some cases of wet macular degeneration. This form of therapy involves closing of the leaky blood vessels. While this can act as a good preventive measure for any further loss of vision, it can not rehabilitate vision that is lost. A therapy that causes less damage than photocoagulation therapy is the photodynamic therapy, which has been in use for the treatment of wet macular degeneration in recent times.

I believe that I have touched the lives of many kids over the past 6 months and am proud of that accomplishment. At the end of my presentation, my mom and I allow time for questions.

I would like to share some of the most frequently asked questions and some that are just downright awesome.

Acid reflux is a condition wherein the partially digested food in the stomach (more specifically the acid that it produces) travels back into the esophagus or throat. To properly explain the perfunctory layout of the disorder, the body’s digestive system has a circular band of muscle that is called the “lower esophageal sphincter”. This circular muscle divides the esophagus from the stomach; as the food reaches the stomach, this muscle seals off to prevent the partially digested food from traveling back to the throat. However, in the event that this circular muscle is rendered useless, the contents of the stomach will eventually regurgitate or travel back to the esophagus.

The alternate word for heartburn is acid reflux. It is a disorder caused by an imbalance of the chemical composition in the body – the attack of acid reflux in the esophagus when it is supposed to be only in the stomach.
