Hello
It seems from the history that you are having macular degenration and on treatment with vitalux...
It seems you are having dry macular degeneration and treatment is by atioxidants as you are taking now.
Vision loss is usually seen in wet type of retinal degenerations and treatment is by intravitreal injections of anti vascular endothelial factors.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for confirmation of diagnosis and type of macular degeneration to know the prognosis.

Thank you
