KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. — In this Healio Video Perspective from Kiawah Eye, Elizabeth Yeu, MD, discusses how cataract surgeons can help to identify retinal lesions.
“I think, especially for cataract surgeons, since we absolutely have access to OCT maculas, that is the No. 1 way that we can take care of identifying retinal lesions, particularly for dry AMD and geographic atrophy,” Yeu said. “It’s good to know and to learn these things particularly as these new innovations come out.”
