I started at every 4 weeks and progressed to every 3 months. A big mistake as far as I'm concerned. After a year and a half of improvement there was dramatic loss. I am set for my next injection tomorrow and am hoping for the best after that. Anticipation of the first was the worst. After that a piece of cake.

Vision has improved. Spot has gone from very cloudy to transparant. On my third year of treatment. Makes me drowsy for 8 hours after shot. One treatment caused excessive watering of the eye, but none since. Very grateful for the medicine.

Well the wife got her first shot today. Gave it all threes because its too new for us to rate. I honestly can not rate how effective it is or isn't yet. We are well known in the retinal surgeon's office. Now its a matter of whether its more or wife in the chair. Though I don't have Wet AMD yet, I am a vet of 8 different eye surgeries, including 3 retinal detachments and likely have glaucoma. ... Show Full Comment

Well the wife got her first shot today. Gave it all threes because its too new for us to rate. I honestly can not rate how effective it is or isn't yet. We are well known in the retinal surgeon's office. Now its a matter of whether its more or wife in the chair. Though I don't have Wet AMD yet, I am a vet of 8 different eye surgeries, including 3 retinal detachments and likely have glaucoma. One thing after reading these reviews I want to point out. Having been there done something like that, DO NOT LET LACK OF KNOWLEDGE ADD TO FEAR!!!! Speak up. Ask questions. Make them explain it to you again if you don't understand. YOU are just as important as anything else they have to do including their schedule. So what if they are late, just be patient when they are late because someone else needs the same consideration. In our case the wife works for a medical company and I know more eye lingo than I care to admit. lol
