Course: Seeing the Signs: Improving Early Detection and Referral for Age-Related Macular Degeneration in Primary Care

CME Credits: 0.75

Early recognition of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is critical to preventing irreversible vision impairment and preserving quality of life in older adults. As the leading cause of reduced visual acuity in individuals over age 50 years, AMD poses particular challenges in rural and underserved communities, where limited access to eye care can delay diagnosis and treatment. This activity, part of the four-part series entitled Eye on Access: A Longitudinal Approach to Closing the Gaps in Retinal Disease Care in Rural and Underserved Communities, will review practical approaches for detecting AMD in the primary care setting and facilitating timely referral to specialists.
