Optometrists play a critical role in first-line screening and monitoring of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (or nAMD) and diabetic macular edema (or DME). Where patients require more advanced care, optometrists refer them to retina specialists. Join Drs Ferhina Ali, Carl Regillo, Jessica Steen and Mohammad Rafieetary as they review the role of optometrists in managing retina disease, the role of OCT in the diagnosis and monitoring of retina disease, and the circumstances where patients with retina disease require referral.
