But here’s a sight for sore eyes: There’s a new drug called Visudyne (verteporfin for injection) introduced recently by Novartis that can help those with AMD. The drug is injected into the arm and starts a chemical process that can prevent further vision loss.

This is highly recommended for patients considered at risk for AMD such as smokers, those with high blood pressure or coronary heart diseases, light skin or eye color, and people with a diet low in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.
