I'm Velmurugan, I'm 28 and from Chennai. After finishing college, I've been running a textile business for the past six years. But for the last year, I've been experiencing these blackouts whenever I focus on something like a book or a face. So, I went to a well-known eye hospital, and they told me its dry macular degeneration. The doctor mentioned there's no cure and I just have to live with it. Is there any hope or anything I can do about this? I've attached the scan reports too. Can someone guide me on possible treatments or actions I should take? I'm really worried about this and would appreciate any advice.

I'm a bit worried because I used to masturbate a lot when I was in 12th grade, and I would often play sports right after. Now, I only do it once a week or every two weeks. I'm 22 years old and recently noticed I need glasses with a prescription of 0.5. Could my past habits of frequent masturbation have affected my health or eyesight? I would really like to know.

Masturbation does not have any direct negative effects on your health or eyes. Wearing glasses with a power of 0.5 is a common prescription for mild vision issues and is not typically related to masturbation. It is important to maintain a balanced lifestyle with regular exercise, healthy diet, and adequate sleep for overall well-being. If you have any specific concerns about your health or eyes, it is recommended to consult with an ophthalmologist for a thorough evaluation.

I'm noticing that one of my eyes seems to have a wider visual field than the other, way more than usual. It's like the peripheral view in that eye is much larger compared to the other one. Should I be concerned about this? What kind of eye problems could this indicate?
