Case of the week: Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
Macular degeneration is a fairly common eye disease we see in clinic. There are two forms: dry and wet. Typically, AMD first presents as dry and can convert to wet AMD as the disease progresses. For the most part, the only treatment option for the dry form is nutrional supplements/vitamins (some exceptions). If it converts to Wet AMD, quick detection is key to saving sight! Always stay up to date with your regular exams and follow up appointments.
