When I saw the title "See Again" and read the two onling customer reviews of this book I became very excited that at last there was a way to help my 85 year old mother with macular degeneration see again. But, this book is not about reversing macular degeneration for those who have it now, as it is billed. It presents the view that macular degeneration can be prevented through nutrition, exercise and the use of protective eyeware. A great many pages are devoted to discussing vegetables, fruits, food preparation and recipes. Nowhere does the book demonstrated that sight will be returned through a specialized diet. My mother and I are very disappointed that it offers no new information or hope on reversing the disease.

The title incluudes the words"reversing " and preventingmacular degeneration and headlines "overcoming visionloss", but inside says macular degeneration is not reversable.I beg to differ as there is nomention of the benefits of chelation therapy for the eyes. There is much to be said for chelation therapy as a treatment ,as the build-up of deposits behind the macula is one of the most direct causes of macular degeneration. Theonly known way to remove the deposits and clear out the circulatory system at the backof the eye is CHELATION THERAPY. How can one present himself as an "expert" withouthaving any mention of ths typeof treatment? To be sure, diet, smoking and lifestyle are important and these are well covered, but in my opinion, the doctor needs to do some more homework.

I bought this book because it was written by my doctor who happens to be an expert on wet macular degeneration. The book to my knowledge was very well written and covered the subject well. The only challenge I had was that research is forever changing and unfortunately this book has become outdated. The basics have been very helpful. The advancements have been many in ten years. Hopefully, Dr.Eaton will write an update using his vast experience. I attended a seminar in southwest Florida sponsored and directed by Dr. Eaton and his team. There were many renowned speakers in attendance. During this seminar I was able to learn about the newer techniques being used worldwide. The book gave me a good overview of the disease. The more I learned about the disease the less fearful I was. Thank you Dr. Eaton.

This easy-to-read and understand book offers a good synopsis of a devastating eye disease. The four step program is easy to follow and the author explains why its important to follow each step. If you or a family members has macular degeneration, you should definitely read this book.

I wish I had read this book 20 years ago so I could have prevented the vision loss which is making it hard to read and write. At least I now know what to do. The four step program is easy to follow, and I have given my children a copy so that they can get started early on a program to prevent macular degeneration.

This book is a must if you have macular degeneration, or if you want to prevent it.
