Remote monitoring is not simply giving a patient an Amsler grid or access to an application. A useful monitoring program must produce reliable information, sustain patient participation, and lead to a defined clinical response.

This course compares home visual acuity, distortion testing, hyperacuity, symptom monitoring, and home OCT. We will examine what each method is capable of detecting, how adherence affects its value, and how alerts should influence the timing of an in-office evaluation.

You will learn how to:

• Match the monitoring method to the disease stage and clinical risk
• Evaluate agreement, bias, repeatability, and analyzable data
• Understand the strengths and limitations of home visual acuity and hyperacuity
• Recognize the emerging role of home OCT
• Create a process for reviewing alerts and contacting patients
• Use remote findings to supplement—not replace—the clinical examination

Technology alone is not a monitoring program. The clinical value comes from connecting the test, the patient, the data, and the appropriate response.
