Why an expert retinal specialist matters:
Over his 18 years of experience in managing AMD and retinal conditions, Mr. Kumar has encountered numerous cases where chronic central serous retinopathy (CSR) has been mis-diagnosed and treated as wet AMD. As both conditions can share similar features on retinal imaging, distinguishing between them requires specialist knowledge, experience, and careful interpretation of clinical findings. In some patients, this diagnostic overlap may result in prolonged unnecessary eye injections that do not address the true underlying condition.
Mr. Kumar emphasises the importance of seeking an expert retinal opinion, particularly in complex or uncertain cases, to ensure accurate diagnosis and appropriate management. His extensive experience in retinal disease enables him to provide a comprehensive assessment and personalised treatment approach for each patient.
