Valeda Light Delivery System is the first and only treatment for Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
to improve vision. While there is no cure for dry AMD, early treatment is important. Valeda uses photobiomodulation (PBM), specific wavelengths of light, to stimulate energy production within the cells resulting in improved cellular health. Treatment with Valeda can improve your vision now
and in the future.
Dry age-related macular degeneration (dry AMD) is an eye condition and a leading cause of vision loss in older adults. It affects the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp, straight-ahead vision used for activities like reading and driving.
There are three main stages to dry age-related macular degeneration.
Stage 1: Early AMD
Small yellow deposits called drusen form under the retina. As they accumulate, they can interfere with the function of the retina and lead to thinning and atrophy of macular tissue. There is typically no vision loss.
Stage 2: Intermediate AMD
Larger drusen and/or pigment changes in the retina; some vision changes may be noticeable.
Stage 3: Advanced AMD
Advanced dry AMD can cause retinal cells to deteriorate and may result in cellular death, leading to geographic atrophy and permanent vision loss.
The video below will answer many of the frequently asked questions about dry AMD.
Valeda delivers a non-invasive, multiwavelength, light-based therapy that utilizes photobiomodulation (PBM) to treat dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients to improve vision.
Valeda’s targeted treatment addresses mitochondrial dysfunction in the retina, a key component of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) , to improve visual acuity and enhance patient outcomes.
