Hi there,

I am so sorry to learn about your CSR and wet AMD.

Please see our booklet about treatments at the following link;

macularsociety.org/sites/de...

I am sure that other forum posters will give you more feedback, as I understand it, PDT is used to treat CSR if an eye specialist considers it appropriate.

If you would like to have a chat with our helpline, please call 0300 30 30 111 (9.00am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday).

Best wishes

Hi, my surgeon has just told me that the next step I'd PDT but I've looked it up and really don't like the sound of it but I'm going to get a 2nd opinion on Monday, so it will be interesting if they mention PDT as well!!! I'll let you know x

I've had 8 treatments up to now. I've been ok after all of them. It doesn't improve your sight though. Good lUckfield let me know how you get on.

Not what you're looking for?
