Wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a chronic, progressive eye disease marked by abnormal blood vessel growth beneath the retina. These fragile vessels can leak fluid or blood into the macula, leading to rapid central vision loss, distortion, or blind spots. Early symptoms like metamorphopsia or sudden vision changes demand prompt attention, as early treatment improves outcomes. Fundus exams can show acute bleeds, but optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography are essential for confirming the diagnosis, assessing disease severity, and guiding treatment. Rapid recognition and imaging are critical to prevent macular scarring and permanent vision damage.
