Nancy,
My Macular specialist had me on monthly injections for the first 2 month and than switched me to Vabysmo and 2 month. You may ask your doctor if you can be switched to a different medication. I will find out this week if I can continue the shots every 2 months. I also take the eye vitamins, eat lots of green leafy vegetables, organic blueberries and strawberries and drink a lot of water. No soda, no alcohol, no junk food. Sofar so good.

A mi me pasaba lo mismo pero ahora tengo esperanza con el nuevo producto que me comienzan a inyectar este proximo viernes, se llama Eylea y supuestamente despues de la tercera inyeccion pueden inyectarte solo dos o tres veces en el aƱo segun la respuesta de tu cuerpo. Espero que sea un cambio inmenso porque inyectarse mensualmente de por vida es dificil.Averigua con tu medico, se que es nueva en EEUU pero en Europa la usan desde el 2000 y los resultados suelen ser muy alentadores. Suerte.

I have been going to Retina Consultants of Nevada now for 4 years for AMD and I am still going every month and getting Avastain injections. Do I have to do this for the rest of my life to prevent blindness,?
