متن کاملQualifying to Use a Home Monitoring Device for Detection of Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration.
IMPORTANCE Patients with intermediate age-related macular degeneration (AMD) using a home monitoring device have less loss of visual acuity, on average, at detection of choroidal neovascularization than do individuals using standard care monitoring techniques. Understanding the frequency with which patients are likely to initiate using a home monitoring device successfully is important in plann...
