Diabetic Retinopathy and Macular Degeneration

At this session of GES Boot Camp we're going to cover diabetic eye disease and macular degeneration.
Please read the attached “Essentials” handouts and use this information and whatever you can get from the web to answer the questions in the “Case Conference” handouts.
When we meet we'll go over the answers to the questions.
Please keep track of the web resources you use so I can share the best sites with the group.

After the case conference discussions we'll head into the clinic rooms again to practice techniques relevant to diabetes and macular degeneration. We'll use the Amsler Grid, the direct ophthalmoscope, the indirect ophthalmoscope and the retinal camera . We'll spend some time looking at retina photos and optical coherence tomography images.
