The results show that participants at high risk for developing choroidal neovascularization (CNV), the neovascular or wet phase of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), using the ForeseeHome monitoring device strategy had significantly better preservation of their visual acuity at the time of CNV detection than the control group of participants who were only using standard care methods to self monitor their AMD for progression.
