I know that no one on here is a specialist, but here is my OCT scan image from last week for my left eye. This is the one that i am being told i have nothing to worry about but is causing me to see a kink.

2 things you could do. 1) ask the Macular Society for advice: and 2) Write or email your consultant eye specialist. I'm certainly no "eye specialist", but to me these pictures, and the fact you are seeing a kink, scream AMD.
