An Objective Method of Diagnosing Hydroxychloroquine Maculopathy

Hydroxychloroquine maculopathy is an irreversible cause of visual impairment. This webinar highlights how the risk of visual loss can be reduced with the identification of early macular changes that are consistent with hydroxychloroquine maculopathy using visual field tests and OCT imaging. The lecturer is Mr. Hani Hasan, Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon, North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust, who also describes the properties of a diagnostic algorithm designed to make diagnosis of the disease standardised and automated.
