Suzanne – Glen Burnie, MD
Suzanne received an alert call from the Notal Vision Data Monitoring Center on November 23, 2011. Just 13 days prior to this call she had been examined by her retina specialist, who saw no signs of wet AMD. Although she had no symptoms, upon receiving the alert she returned to her retina specialist. He confirmed the early development of wet AMD and started treatment. Thanks to monitoring with the ForeseeHome, Suzanne's wet AMD was detected before she noticed any symptoms and her retina specialist was able to begin treatment and prevent any loss of vision.
Patricia – Olathe, KS
Patricia had already lost vision in her left eye from wet AMD. She subscribed to the ForeseeHome AMD Monitoring Program in hopes that early detection would protect the vision in her right eye, which had been diagnosed with dry AMD. After a month and a half, she received an alert from the Notal Vision Data Monitoring Center. She immediately scheduled an appointment with her retina specialist who confirmed that she had indeed converted to wet AMD in that eye. At the time of the alert, the she had noticed minimal visual change and had not identified any significant change on her Amsler grid. Additionally, her visual acuity had not changed (20/30). With the help of the ForeseeHome, Patiricia’s physician was able to treat her at the earliest possible stage and preserve her good vision.

Elizabeth was treated right away and has shown no loss of vision.
