Case Studies
Early Detection and Treatment Preserve Patient’s Vision
A dry AMD patient received an alert from the Notal Vision Data Monitoring Center after using the ForeseeHome for about a month and a half. She immediately scheduled an appointment with her retina specialist and an OCT and FA confirmed that she had indeed converted to wet AMD. At the time of the alert, the patient had noticed minimal visual change and had not identified any significant change on her Amsler grid. Additionally, her visual acuity had not changed (20/30). With the help of the ForeseeHome, her physician was able to treat the lesion at the earliest possible stage and preserve the patient’s good vision.
Wet AMD Detected Early with the Help of the ForeseeHome
A patient had been using the ForeseeHome AMD Monitoring Program for about a month when they received an alert call from the Notal Vision Data Monitoring Center. Although the patient still had a visual acuity of 20/25 and saw no distortion on the Amsler Grid, an examination by her retina specialist confirmed the conversion from dry to wet AMD. The patient was treated right away and has shown no loss of vision.
ForeseeHome Detects Visual Changes Associated with AMD
After using the ForeseeHome daily for about 3 months, a patient received an alert from the Notal Vision Data Monitoring Center. He immediately saw his retina specialist where it was confirmed that he had converted from dry to wet AMD. At the time of the alert, the patient had excellent 20/20 acuity and was asymptomatic, exhibiting no visual changes on the Amsler Grid. The ForeseeHome detected the visual changes that allowed the patient to be treated before the lesion progressed, preserving his vision.
ForeseeHome Allows Doctor to Catch AMD Conversion Early
After using the ForeseeHome regularly for 6 months, a patient received an alert from the Notal Vision Data Monitoring Center. A visit to his retina specialist confirmed that he had converted from dry to wet AMD. At this time, the patient was asymptomatic and his visual acuity had not changed (20/40). Thanks to the ForeseeHome, his doctor was able to catch the conversion early and start treatment immediately, before the patient lost vision.
ForeseeHome Alert Aids in Early Detection of Wet AMD
A patient had been using the ForeseeHome AMD Monitor for almost 7 months when he received an alert call from the Notal Vision Data Monitoring Center. Although he was asymptomatic at the time of the alert and his visual acuity had not changed (20/40), an exam by his retina specialist confirmed the conversion to wet AMD in his right eye. With the help of the ForeseeHome, the doctor was able to start treatment immediately, preserving the patient’s vision and his quality of life.
