Anti-VEGF Injections
For Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
Eye injections that stop abnormal blood vessel growth in wet AMD.
How it works
A needle-thin injection goes into the eye to deliver medicine that stops abnormal blood vessel growth. Common drugs: Eylea, Lucentis, Avastin, Vabysmo. You get injections every 4-12 weeks.
Is this right for me?
Wet AMD patients. If caught early, injections prevent most vision loss.
What to expect
Injection takes seconds; the numbing drops mean you feel pressure, not pain. Vision may stabilize or improve. Most people need repeated injections to maintain benefit.
Insurance and cost considerations
Coverage varies by plan and provider. Discuss cost and payment options directly with your eye care provider.
