AB  - BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Timely treatment of age-related macular degeneration 
      (AMD) is integral in improving outcomes. To catch choroidal neovascularization as 
      soon as possible, patients should monitor vision at home. The objective of this 
      study is to explore the Hyperacuity App (HAC) as a screen for progression of 
      disease in AMD. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional, single-center study was 
      performed with 33 subjects. Consent was obtained and patient information was 
      protected in accordance with the protocol approved by the Yale Human Research 
      Protection Program. A masked retinal subspecialist then graded the 
      spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) taken the same day to 
      determine which patients required treatment. Further data about the patient were 
      obtained through chart review. RESULTS: The HAC was shown to have 92.3% 
      sensitivity and 61.5% specificity in distinguishing between patients who required 
      treatment and those who did not require treatment. CONCLUSION: The HAC is a 
      potential screen for choroidal neovascularization in AMD. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers
