I didn’t think there was much in the way of treatment for the wet variation of macular degeneration.

I have been getting eye injections for over 10 years. At first they were about 1 to 2 months apart, but about 2 years ago the eye was stable enough that they started spacing the injections out.
Now they are about 4 months apart. Over the years, there has been a half dozen times that the doctor also inserted an Ozurdex pellet in the eye in addition to the Lucentis shot.
This current treatment is expensive and slow, it would be a great savings for Medicare if a more effective drug was developed.
