Wet macular degeneration, also called neovascular AMD, is a serious eye condition that can lead to vision loss. The abnormal growth of blood vessels under the retina causes fluid to leak, leading to blurred central vision. Fortunately, there are synonyms for this condition that may help those who may not be familiar with the medical jargon. Other terms that can be used to describe wet macular degeneration include exudative AMD, choroidal neovascularization, and neovascular maculopathy. Understanding these synonyms can help individuals communicate effectively with their healthcare professionals and receive the appropriate treatment for their condition.
