Sadly there is no cure for macular degeneration. A special combination of vitamins and minerals (areds formula) may reduce disease progression. Surgery may also be an option.

Myopia has no relation with masturbation. You should see an eye specialist. If someone has told you your myopia is due to masturbation then he has no knowledge.

Excess fluid inside the eye can lead to sight-threatening eye diseases— making early diagnosis absolutely vital. Collagen, water and protein are the primary materials that make up the eye — but sometimes, a surplus of fluid can accumulate inside the eye, increasing the risk of serious eye diseases.

Hi, 1) please get your cholesterol levels under control. For the spots on eye lid called xanthelasma, you can consult local dermatologist. They will remove it via a small procedure. 2) please consult urologist. It could be bph issue. 3) you need not take any medication as such, unless you face issues like hot flares, mood swings etc. Kindly consult gynecologist for the same.

Eyeglasses. For most people with myopia, eyeglasses are the primary choice for correction. Depending on the amount of myopia, you may only need to wear glasses for certain activities, like watching a movie or driving a car. Or, if you are very nearsighted, you may need to wear them all the time.

Retinal holes and tears do not automatically cause severe vision problems; instead, the areas of the retina that have holes and tears will not function correctly. If the condition is not well managed or treated in due time, then significant vision loss or even blindness can occur.

First of all it is important to know the cause of macular edema. You have not mentioned that in you query. Second important factor is type of macular edema and cause of its persistence. Only giving anti vegf injection does not cure macular edema. One needs to find out the cause behind it and that should be targeted. Also nepafenac is not needed after anti vegf injections.
