About the clinic
Consultant-led AMD care in Salford
AMD Clinic provides private assessment, monitoring and guidance for people concerned about age-related macular degeneration.
The clinic is led by Mr Myer Mark Yodaiken, Consultant Ophthalmologist, with considerable specialist experience in medical retina and AMD care. His background includes NHS consultant work, medical retina training at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital, and extensive private ophthalmology experience.
A clinic focused on AMD
AMD Clinic exists for patients who want clear, specialist advice about macular degeneration.
Some patients come because they have symptoms. Others have been told they are at risk. Some already have AMD and want careful monitoring, a second opinion, or a clearer explanation of their options.
The aim is simple: to help you understand what is happening with your eyes, what your level of risk is, and what the next step should be.

After moving to the UK, he continued his training in medical retina at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital and completed fellowships in anterior segment surgery and age-related macular degeneration.

Extensive experience in AMD treatment
Mr Yodaiken has undertaken over 10,000 intravitreal injections for age-related macular degeneration.
For patients, this matters because AMD care often requires careful monitoring, clear explanation and timely decisions. Seeing an experienced AMD specialist can make the process feel more understandable and less uncertain.
Treatment recommendations are always based on the individual patient's examination, scans and clinical findings.
What you can expect
Your appointment is designed to make AMD feel clearer, more practical and less uncertain.
Clear explanation of your scans
Where scans or imaging are used, the results are explained in plain language so you understand what has been found.
Practical next steps
You will be told whether monitoring, treatment, further investigation or reassurance is the right next step.
Continuity
The same specialist, a clearer conversation
Many patients prefer seeing the same doctor over time, especially when AMD is being monitored or treatment decisions need to be reviewed.
At AMD Clinic, your history, concerns and previous findings can be understood in context. This helps make each appointment more useful, more personal and less repetitive.
Why this matters
- Your history and concerns are understood in context
- Subtle changes can be discussed against previous findings
- You can ask questions directly to the specialist
- Your plan can be adjusted as your eyes and priorities change
