Katherine Talcott, MD, joins Ogul Uner, MD, to review a case of a 70-year-old woman with a history of intermediate dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The patient now presented with wavy lines in her vision in the right eye, and dilated exam showed several large drusen in both eyes with no retinal hemorrhages. OCT of the right macula showed fibrovascular pigment epithelial detachments with retinal pigment epithelium and fluid. Dr. Talcott describes her initial thoughts about the case and the additional information she would look for to make a diagnosis of neovascular AMD. She also discusses her management approach for patients with wet AMD.
