Macular degenerative disease (Age-related) Top-Left ● ● ● ● Shows extensive macular damage with yellowish deposits (drusen) and hemorrhages. Retinal atrophy and fluid accumulation visible in the central macular region. Blood vessels appear distorted and irregular. Can suspect it as AMD Top-Right Quadrant (Fluorescein Angiography - Early Phase) ● Dark central area indicates blocked blood flow due to fluid or hemorrhage. ● Blood vessels in peripheral regions appear normal. ● Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is suspected, commonly seen in wet AMD. ● Time-stamped at 00:22:08, showing early leakage patterns. Bottom-Left Quadrant (Fluorescein Angiography - Mid Phase) ● leakage in the macular region ○ active neovascularization. ● The central part more defined, ○ extent of the lesion. ● Surrounding retinal vessels are becoming more obscured by fluid accumulation. ● Time-stamped at 00:36:39, showing progression. Bottom-Right Quadrant (Fluorescein Angiography - Late Phase) ● hyperfluorescence in the macular region ○ leakage ● The affected area appears more extensive, with fluid spread beyond the initial lesion. ● Suggests worsening of wet AMD with ongoing vascular leakage. ● Time-stamped at 04:29:04, showing advanced-stage leakage.
