Wet AMD in left eye

2023-12-28 04:23:29
Hi, My brother reported blurry vision in left eye for a week. He stays in the UK a d went to a private clinic for eye check up. Upon examination, the clinic found wet AMD in left eye. They have now advised him to go to ophthalmologist to see what treatment is fit, such as wet amd/macula service or flourescein angiography. He is a patient of blood pressure diagnosed with high BP about 7-8 months ago and currently taking Olmezest medicine. He is thin built, tall and works from home (desk job) so not much movement outside. But had been very active generally. Could you please suggest what kind of treatment is suitable for him? I am attaching a copy of his eye test report from the clinic. Thank you.
