Maculopathy LOCSU

This lecture series is designed to complement the LOCSU Maculopathy Referral Filtering and Monitoring pathway. The aim of the series is to build on existing knowledge of maculopathy with an emphasis on monitoring in primary care, referral and treatment pathways and optical coherence tomography (OCT) interpretation.  The series aims to improve the efficiency and accuracy of case-finding for AMD. For both new and review (wet active) AMD patients, and so improve the speed at which people are diagnosed and treated within the hospital eye service, to help prevent loss of sight, as well as people with a diagnosis of late AMD who require regular monitoring in primary care practice. The course is aimed at optometrists.
