What Is Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration?
Dry age-related macular degeneration is the gradual deterioration of the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp vision. It is a leading cause of blindness in individuals over 50 and often develops without symptoms in its early stages.
However, as it progresses, it can lead to:
- Blurriness or distortion in central vision
- Difficulty seeing in low light
- Challenges with colour perception
MacuMira has been clinically shown to restore vision in patients with dry AMD and can improve both vision and quality of life.
What to Expect During Your MacuMira Treatment
The treatment is comfortable and noninvasive and involves no injections or medications.
Your eye care provider will create a personalized plan, typically starting with four sessions over 10 days, each lasting about 30 minutes.
During treatment:
- You’ll be seated comfortably in an exam chair.
- A specialized headset will be placed on your head, which will gently deliver microcurrent stimulation to your closed eyes.
- This microcurrent enhances blood flow to nourish the macula and stimulates the production of essential cellular components that support retinal health.
To maintain the benefits of the treatment, you’ll typically have follow-up sessions every 2.5 to 3 months.
Benefits of MacuMira Treatment for Dry AMD
MacuMira offers several benefits, including:
- Restored sight: In a clinical trial, 100% of patients showed improved vision.
- Enhanced contrast sensitivity: Many patients reported improved vision in low-light conditions and better differentiation between light and dark.
- Quick results: Most patients started seeing results within the first 10 days of treatment.

As you may already be aware, Alberta Health Services has recently cut back coverage on optometry services. These changes were unexpected. We are extremely disappointed with their decision and how they handled bringing about this change.
To maintain the high quality of care that you have come to expect at our clinic, there will now be a fee for most eyecare services that were previously fully covered by AHS. If you would like to know how this affects you, please call our clinic at 780-826-4437 and one of our team members would be happy to assist you. You are also welcome to contact your local MLA to voice any concerns you may have with these changes in coverage.
Thank you for your understanding and your continued support.
