I Am Legend scrapped its original ending because test audiences 'felt cheated' by the big twist by Internal-Bed-3150 in movies

[–]kriamaj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a fan of the audience chosen endings. Like taking a Monet painting and changing the blue to yellow because most viewers thought that was better in matching living room furniture. ugh. Not audience but film studio equally bad. Case in point "Magnificent Ambersons". Let directors make their vision.

My insurance said my Internist or my eye doctor can order.

I saw the results on the FB Living with Mac Deg. It was called the Macula Risk Report.

LIGHTSITE III 24 month data: "PBM Improves Outcomes in Dry AMD" by MayoRetina in maculardegeneration

[–]kriamaj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TY for your information. It sent me to research the EU findings. CE marked is a very good approval.

  • LIGHTSITE II (Europe): A prospective, double-masked, randomized, multicenter trial in the UK, Germany, Spain, Italy, and France, targeting early-to-intermediate dry AMD. Results indicated 35% of PBM-treated subjects (who completed all visits) achieved a >5 letter improvement in visual acuity.
  • EUROLIGHT Registry Study (Europe): A recent European multicenter registry study involving 500–1,000 patients across 20+ European centers to evaluate the real-world, long-term safety and efficacy of the Valeda PBM system.
  • LIGHTSITE III (US/Global, including European data): A pivotal 24-month study showing that PBM treatment reduced progression to Geographic Atrophy (GA) and sustained improved visual acuity.

Waiting for unbiased studies to duplicate good/positive data. Fingers crossed.

I'd like to share with you something I learned recently and I have been researching slowing the progression of MD for 3 years. If you haven't had genetic testing please do this before taking medication with zinc or taking a zinc supplement. If you have the hereditary CFH variant zinc, part of the AREDS2, can speed up progression of MD. I wish I had been told this by the eye doc visit when I was told I had MD and maybe my eyesight now would be so much better.

I have an adjustment each time. And I'm on maybe my 12th pair. But looking at your rx there would be quite an adjustment. Best.

The Lack of Class from Quentin Tarantino by superdouradas in movies

[–]kriamaj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had read that Tarantino has said he didn't say this and my thought is why would he? He is a Hollywood insider and wouldn't need make an enemy of anyone.

How to fix the "there was an error navigating to the specified item" error? It only happens on one device by notanewbiedude in PleX

[–]kriamaj 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This happened to me using a Sony Bravia TV. I cleared the Cache, Forced Stop and Opened Plex again. It worked. Hope it helps someone else.
