I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I will be answering your question.
I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having Stargardt' s disease. Stargardt' s disease is a retinal dystrophy and there is no curative treatment. The only treatment available is use of low visual aids and your doctors are right in the diagnosis.
