I am a student of acupuncture. Although I have not yet specifically studied macular degeneration, I can tell you that the energetic network of the body contains several channels and many collaterals that reach the eyes. Thus, acupuncture, which accesses the points along these meridians, is able to treat disorders of the eyes. While studying in China, I visited an eye hospital where acupuncture was used, and we visited a clinic where several treatments were taking place. The doctors noted dramatic improvements in their patients. A google search for acupuncture and macular degeneration turns up some interesting results. Good luck to you and your mother!
