Patient Education Videos

When patients are engaged, they become more actively involved in their own healthcare. Educational videos are a great way to inform patients about AMD, dark adaptation testing with the AdaptDx Pro® headset, and motivate them to be proactive about their macular health. You can use these videos in a variety of ways including adding them to your practice website, posting them on social media, or playing them in your waiting room.

Intructions for Using Videos

You can use videos in two different ways:

  1. Download the whole video file: This is necessary if you want to play the video on a TV in your waiting room or exam lane.
  2. Embed the video using a YouTube link: To add the video to your website or social media, the best practice is to copy and paste the YouTube embed link.

This video outlines testing procedures for the AdaptDx Pro headset so your patients know what to expect.

Patient Warning Signs

This video explains that night vision problems are the first warning sign of early stages of age-related macular degeneration. Patients experiencing difficulty seeing at night should be tested for impaired dark adaptation.

About AMD, Its Risk Factors, and First Symptoms

This video has no sound, making it the perfect visual to put on the screen in your waiting room. It explains that trouble seeing at night is the first symptom of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a progressive disease that affects your patients’ central vision and is the leading cause of adult blindness in the developed world.

Trouble Seeing At Night: More Than Just A Sign of Aging?

Typically blamed on the normal aging process, trouble seeing at night is often the first warning sign of AMD. This video educates and encourages your patients to address night vision concerns during their appointment, before disease progression compromises their central vision even further.

The Value of Early AMD Detection – Mother Daughter Story

This video captures the story of a mother with wet AMD and her daughter’s concern for her mother’s future – as well as her own risk of developing the same sight-stealing disease. By watching this video, patients will be reminded that AMD can be a multi-generational issue, with the potential for mitigation available through early detection, active treatment, and proactive management.

Impaired Dark Adaptation: The Earliest Biomarker of Age-Related Macular Degeneration

While this video was originally developed to educate doctors, patients may find it valuable to learn how subclinical AMD is affecting cell growth beneath the surface – causing changes in their vision even before drusen are visible.
