Geographic atrophy is a term commonly used in the context of age-related macular degeneration. Age-related macular degeneration is a progressive eye condition affecting the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for acute, central vision. Geographic atrophy is an advanced form of Age-related macular degeneration where there is a gradual loss of retinal cells in specific areas, leading to the formation of distinct regions of atrophy. In today's podcast, Dr. Chris Lievens sits with two retinal experts, Drs. Jessica Haynes and Steven Ferrucci. They discuss geographic atrophy, covering the disease state, diagnosing with the Heidelberg Engineering SPECTRALIS OCT, and the importance of the doctor-patient relationship. • Podcast Timeline: • 0:00 Introduction. • 4:00: Dry or Wet ARMD.
