VIDEO: Home monitoring detects conversion from dry to wet AMD sooner

LAS VEGAS – Earlier detection of wet AMD leads to better treatment and better outcomes, Steve Ferrucci, OD, said here at Vision Expo West.

Ferrucci said he recommends the use of the Foresee Home (Notal Vision), a device that uses preferential hyperacuity perimetry to detect macular metamorphopsia sooner. Patients who use the device at home at least twice a week have been found to have better visual acuity, he said.
