Blindness has been a condition that has plagued mankind since its early beginnings and it is, without a doubt, one of the most terrifying things ever, especially for those people who gradually went blind, as opposed to those who were actually born this way. However, it would seem that a company called ScyFIX might have come up with a cure for this problem, or at least some of the regenerative diseases ultimately associated with blindness.

Hence, as the company informs us, this first-of-its-kind therapy, called ScyFIX 700, uses microcurrent neuromodulation to help prevent vision loss and even restore sight for patients with low-vision, blindness-related diseases. The ScyFIX 700 works by administering a tiny current of electricity that stimulates the body’s own healing capabilities, and represents the result of seven years of research and development work.

This is the first ever device therapy approval for Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), a degenerative disease where peripheral vision is lost that can lead to total blindness. Additionally, clinical results show promise for the ScyFIX 700 to treat other blindness-related diseases, including Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD).

“The approval of this breakthrough therapy gives hope to the millions of people suffering from low-vision, blindness-causing diseases who have had no therapy options until now,” said Thomas W. Harold, founder of ScyFIX and inventor of the ScyFIX 700. “Patients now report seeing faces of their family members, using mobile phones, reading newspapers and performing day-to-day tasks, which was not possible for them prior to use of the ScyFIX therapy.”

According to ScyFIX, its 700 therapy is immediately available for purchase with a prescription from an eye care professional. Unfortunately, no pricing details have been provided. Regardless of the price, if the ScyFIX 700 really works as advertised and actually helps people prevent the loss of their eyesight, then it's worth every single penny.
