Eye on Ocular Health features expert commentary on the management and prevention of debilitating eye problems, such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, ocular traumas, and chronic dry eye. This series features commentary from renowned ophthalmologists discussing the most successful diagnostic and treatment options emerging in practice.
Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP
Guest: Jonathan Jonisch, MD
Personalized care is playing a bigger role in geographic atrophy management, especially as emerging therapies are giving clinicians more opportunities to help slow disease progression. To choose the right approach, it’s important to consider various factors, such as lesion characteristics, treatment burden, and each patient’s individual goals and lifestyle. Joining Dr. Charles Turck to share practical insights on tailoring treatment decisions and guiding patient conversations around geographic atrophy care is Dr. Jonathan Jonisch, board-certified ophthalmologist and Assistant Clinical Professor of Ophthalmology at the Hofstra Northwell School of Medicine in New York.

Improving Early Detection of Geographic Atrophy
Host: Alexandria May, PharmD, BCPS
Guest: Hasenin Al-khersan, MD
Geographic atrophy can progress silently before patients notice meaningful vision changes, making early detection critical to preserving long-term retinal health. Fortunately, advances in imaging and emerging biomarkers are helping clinicians identify higher-risk patients earlier and refine monitoring and referral decisions. Joining Dr. Alexandria May to discuss the evolving approach to geographic atrophy detection and management is Dr. Hasenin Al-khersan, a board-certified medical and surgical retina specialist with Retina Consultants of Texas in Houston.

Recognizing Geographic Atrophy Progression in AMD
Host: Brian P. McDonough, MD, FAAFP
Guest: Jaclyn Kovach, MD
Geographic atrophy can develop long before traditional visual acuity testing reflects the true impact of disease, making early identification critical in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). In this discussion with Dr. Brian McDonough, Dr. Jaclyn Kovach reviews the imaging findings and biologic drivers associated with geographic atrophy progression and shares practical approaches to patient monitoring. Dr. Kovach is a Professor of Clinical Ophthalmology and the Fellowship Director at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine's Bascom Palmer Eye Institute.
