🌟👁️ Dr. SriniVas Sadda explores the practical applications of autofluorescence in detecting geographic atrophy at ASRS – American Society of Retina Specialists 2024. With the advent of FDA-approved treatments for this condition, the need for effective monitoring tools has never been greater. Dr. Sadda discusses the challenges and discomfort associated with blue light autofluorescence and proposes a shift towards the more commonly available green light autofluorescence, especially in non-retinal practices. This innovation could vastly improve patient identification and monitoring, making advanced care more accessible. #ASRS2024 #Ophthalmology #MedicalLeadership #VisionaryInOphthalmology #MedicalInnovation #RetinaSpecialists #EyeCareInnovation #VisionScience #MedTech #HealthcareTrends #ClinicalResearch Saghar Bagheri MD PhD
