The Promise of Home Monitoring: A New Era in Retinal Disease Management
The Promise of Home Monitoring: A New Era in Retinal Disease Management
At Tennessee Retina, we are committed to advancing the way we care for patients—and that includes embracing innovations that improve outcomes and quality of life. We’re proud to share that our very own Dr. Eric Schneider recently authored an insightful article, "The Promise of Home Monitoring," published in Ophthalmology Management.
In this article, Dr. Schneider explores how remote surveillance tools for retinal diseases—like age-related macular degeneration (AMD)—can allow treatments to be better timed with the progression of the disease, rather than relying solely on pre-scheduled clinic visits. This approach has the potential to improve both vision preservation and the patient experience.
As technology continues to evolve, so does our ability to care for patients in a more personalized, responsive way. Home monitoring not only empowers patients, but also helps physicians detect changes earlier—leading to timely interventions and better outcomes.
“"Expansion of remote monitoring in ophthalmology appears inevitable. Early adopting practices stand to benefit by way of improved clinic volumes and enhanced patient value resulting from more productive and efficient care delivery.”— Eric W. Schneider, MD
