“I saw a TV commercial in the fall of 2013 for the acupuncture center and the treatment of Macular Degeneration. I didn’t pursue it until the spring of 2014 because I was told that nothing could be done. A medical professional I was seeing told me that Dr. Ryan was specially trained in that field, and he recommended I see what she could do.

When I went to her, I had lost my ability to read even with a magnifying glass, and I had a film of yellowish-brown that I saw through. I could no longer see a bright sunshiny day or a bright TV picture. After three treatments, the dark yellow-brown film was gone, and I could see the bright sunshine and TV. I also regained my ability to read with a magnifying glass. The blurriness remains, but I can really see what I feel is almost 50% improvement. I know there is no cure but hopefully by going for follow-up treatment 3-4 times a year, I’ll be able to hold it at bay for sometime to come.

I’m grateful to Dr. Ryan for all she has done for me. I’m so glad I took the chance to go see her and not listen to those who said no one could help.”
