AMD is One of the Fastest-Growing Chronic Disease in Primary Eye Care.
Does Your Practice Have a Repeatable System to Respond?
Our patient population is aging, emerging therapies are expanding your role, and patients are coming to you with more questions than ever regarding Age-Related Macular Degeneration.
- Am I a candidate for treatment?
- Should I be doing more than taking vitamins?
- How often do I need to be seen?
These are reasonable questions from patients. Without systems in place, we risk our care being inconsistent from patient to patient.
Build Repeatable Responses and Improve Patient Outcomes
With standardized workflows that align all team members, we can reduce variability in patient care and improve the practice’s efficiency.
Identify at-risk patients earlier
Recognize progression sooner
Use appropriate diagnostic testing
Incorporate evidence-based nutritional recommendations
Improve patient understanding and compliance
Develop monitoring strategies that support earlier intervention

- Completed AMD Implementation Workshop
