Second-generation anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapies approved for the management of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), diabetic macular edema (DME), and retinal vein occlusion (RVO) continue to be evaluated in ongoing clinical and real-world studies. Findings from these studies provide additional insights to guide the incorporation of these therapies into clinical practice, with the goal of enhancing visual and anatomic outcomes while reducing treatment burden in patients with retinal diseases. Although keeping up to date with emerging data can be challenging, doing so is essential for the optimal integration of second-generation anti-VEGF therapies into patient care. In this CE activity, experts in the field evaluate recent clinical evidence on approved second-generation anti-VEGF therapies to inform the management of treatment naive and previously treated patients with retinal diseases.   To claim CME credit, please visit HealioCME.com and search for this activity title

Geographic atrophy (GA) is a progressive, degenerative disease whose development is associated with modifiable and nonmodifiable risk factors, including mutations in specific genes involved in the regulation of the complement system. Multimodal imaging is crucial for the early diagnosis and determination of GA progression, with current recommendations highlighting optical coherence tomography as the primary imaging modality for detecting biomarkers associated with progression. Two novel therapies that target components of the complement system were approved by the FDA in 2023 allowing for personalized, long-term management of GA. In this CE activity, experts in the field review the latest imaging tools for the early diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression; evaluate clinical and imaging characteristics associated with disease progression in different phenotypes; and assess individualized treatment selection for patients with GA secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Rapid-Fire Roundtable discussion will further examine practical methods and procedures that can facilitate the optimal implementation of imaging modalities and therapies into the management of patient with GA secondary to AMD.   To claim CE credit after listening to this episode, go to this link and check the "Already listened on another platform?" box: https://healio.com/cme/mededtalks/ophthalmology/20241202/ga-secondary-to-amd-optimizing-long-term-outcomes-through-refined-treatment-selection
