MACULAR DEGENERATION

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects the central part of the retina, impacting your ability to read, drive, or recognize faces. It’s a leading cause of vision loss in adults over 50, progressing slowly or rapidly.

At American Eye Care Center, we offer thorough screening and treatment plans tailored to your specific type of AMD. With early detection, lifestyle recommendations, and advanced therapies, we aim to preserve your central vision and daily functionality.

Post-Surgery Care and Monitoring

After your surgery, your eye care provider will continue to monitor your progress through follow-up visits. These visits are essential to ensure your eyes are healing properly and that your vision is improving as expected. You will be guided through the healing process and given specific instructions to optimize recovery and minimize complications.

Why Choose Co-Management?

  1. Comprehensive Care: Co-management allows for seamless collaboration between your optometrist, ophthalmologist, and our skilled surgical team. This ensures that all aspects of your eye health are considered at every stage of the process.
  2. Personalized Treatment: Your primary eye care provider knows your eyes and vision history, which helps customize the treatment plan for you.
  3. Enhanced Monitoring: Your eye care provider will help track your healing progress and provide ongoing support, addressing any concerns or adjustments needed as you recover from surgery.
  4. Ongoing Eye Health: After surgery, your eye care provider will continue to monitor your eye health to detect and manage any future changes, ensuring long-term visual well-being.
