Can Macular Dystrophy In Eyes Be Treated With Medication?

My husband was diagnosed with macular dystrophy 6 months ago, and he was told by the retinologist that there was nothing he could do to treat it, as compared to macular degeneration, where one can take vitamins and shots to the eye to help slow the progression. Is this truly the case?

it is truly the case. you can try naturopathy and Ayurveda. they claim a cure but there is no authenticity. since there is no side effect so no harm in trying.
