Dear colleague,
Thank you for your referral.
On exam, our patient was found to have non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy without macular edema. Currently, their diabetic retinopathy requires no intervention at this time but I will watch them closely for progression. I explained to our patient the need for tighter glucose control in helping prevent future diabetic ocular complications.
In addition, our patient was found to have dry age-related macular degeneration. They currently do not require any intervention but I did recommended daily AREDS 2 vitamins in addition to daily Amsler grid monitoring.
I will have them follow up with us every 6-12 months for a repeat dilated exam, sooner as needed.
Thank you again for allowing me to participate in their care.
Sincerely,
Gintien Huang, M.D.
