A great catch by Dr. Atul Sharma and the Georgia Retina team with .

With wet already in one eye, this patient was referred in November 2022 to monitor the fellow eye and remained a consistent tester over time. More than three years later, wet AMD conversion was diagnosed following a ForeseeHome alert while the patient was still seeing 20/20.

Cases like this highlight the value of monitoring between office visits to support timely treatment, especially for patients whose second eye is at higher risk of converting and carries added importance for day-to-day vision.

The Notal Vision Monitoring Center is proud to partner with Georgia Retina to support monitoring patients between visits.

An Optometry Times interview with Carolyn Majcher, OD, FAAO, makes an important point: early wet detection is strongest when in-office OCT and home monitoring work together. Dr. Majcher emphasizes that is the standard of care in office, while home monitoring can help clinicians track change between appointments and support more timely follow-up.

That is why plays an important role. It adds another layer of monitoring between regularly scheduled eye exams and complements in-office OCT as part of a more complete monitoring strategy.

Congratulations to Majda Hadziahmetovic and the Duke Eye Center team on this important ForeseeHome catch.

Referred in early January 2026 with 20/20 vision, this patient’s wet conversion was diagnosed at the end of March 2026, with vision still at 20/20. Cases like this are an important reminder that change can happen between regularly scheduled visits, before a patient notices symptoms on their own.

Congratulations to Ryan Deasy, MD and the Virginia Eye Institute team on a ForeseeHome catch.

This patient was referred in October 2025 with 20/60 vision, and less than two months later, a ForeseeHome alert prompted evaluation and Dr. Deasey diagnosed wet AMD at 20/60-1.

Without monitoring between visits, this change may not have been identified until the patient’s next regularly scheduled appointment months later. Studies have shown that delays in treatment after wet AMD conversion are associated with worse visual outcomes.

Today we celebrate optometrists for the meaningful role they play in patients’ lives and in the broader eye care journey.

As primary eye care doctors, optometrists help detect, manage, and monitor medical eye conditions, often serving as a trusted first point of care and an essential partner in protecting long-term vision.

Their expertise, attentiveness, and patient relationships make a real difference every day.

A noteworthy ForeseeHome catch for Kathryn Hecker and the Hecker Eye Care Associates team.

After diligently testing for almost 6 years, this patient’s wet AMD conversion was caught with 20/50-3 vision. The same eye had previously generated a non-exudative alert—an earlier alert that did not result in conversion. Evidence shows these alerts may indicate a higher risk of future conversion and the need for more vigilant monitoring.

This is a great example of that long-term vigilance in action.

Advanced at-home monitoring is becoming an important part of the conversation.

In a recent patient-education article, the American Academy of Ophthalmology highlights the role of at-home monitoring for people living with AMD. Home-based technologies can help extend care beyond the clinic. SCANLY Home OCT and ForeseeHome enable remote disease monitoring between scheduled visits for appropriate patients with AMD.

As monitoring technologies continue to advance, conversations like this help patients better understand how care can extend beyond the clinic visit.

An FDA-approved at-home monitoring program for wet AMD may help make care easier and more personalized. Special devices let patients use OCT to check their eyes at home.

Congratulations to Dr. Katia Taba and the Retina Group of Florida team for catching a patient’s wet conversion with ForeseeHome.

In this case, the patient was referred with 20/30 vision and generated a ForeseeHome alert just over a month later, leading to a wet AMD diagnosis at 20/50. Without home monitoring, the patient may not have been evaluated again until their next regularly scheduled appointment months later.

Timely evaluation and treatment initiation are widely recognized as important factors in visual outcomes for wet AMD. ForeseeHome monitoring between exams can help bring potential changes to clinical attention sooner.

The Notal Vision Monitoring Center is proud to partner with Retina Group of Florida to support ongoing AMD monitoring between visits.

Live from the 2026 meeting in San Diego.

Prof. Anat Loewenstein presented new data evaluating longitudinal Home OCT trajectories in neovascular AMD using the AI-based Notal OCT Analyzer (NOA).

The takeaway: AI-based trajectory analysis can accurately distinguish stable from changing patterns in Home OCT data, and personalized thresholds may enhance sensitivity in identifying change over time.

Congratulations to current president Julia Haller, MD and the organizing team for an excellent meeting that continues to spotlight the research shaping the future of retinal care.

After over 5 years of monitoring with the ForeseeHome AMD Monitoring Program, this patient experienced a timely detection of wet in the left eye - caught at 20/50+2 vision - thanks to Dr. Melissa Summerfield and the North Iowa Eye Clinic team in Mason City, Iowa.

Early detection makes the difference in AMD management!
