Ocular Amyloidosis Treatment

My mom has ocular amyloidosis. She is almost completely blind. Does anyone have suggestions for where to look for more specialized care and treatment? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I also have vision problems with Attr-wt. Iā€™m curious about how they diagnosed ocular amyloid.

If you are looking for help with her visual deficits most states have a division of the vocational rehab department that offers gait retraining, as well as adaptive equipment to assist with mobility as well as reading (large print and audio books).
