Retinal Vein Occlusion Treatments?

5 Replies

Hi. I am looking for people who have or have had RVO (retinal vein occlusion) and have had Ozurdex injections to treat this issue. I'm working with a pharma client on an educational video for their website and I need to connect with people with RVO who would like to share their experience. I can provide more information on the video and the work I do. I'm hoping to understand this disease and treatments. Thanks!

Hi BluePE, I am an otherwise healthy 70 year old female and experienced a retinal vein occlusion about 2 years ago. Since then I’ve been given 7 Eyelea injections which have really helped the vision and blurriness in my eye. I realise I am being given a different medication to the one you mentioned but if my experience is helpful to you then I am happy to share. Tricia LL

Thank you! I will ask if we can include eyelea injections also. I'm so glad they have helped your vision and blurriness! I'll message soon with additional answers.

Hi Tricia. I just spoke with my pharma client and I am able to include Eyelea injections in my search. I would love to speak with you to understand this disease and how it affects people. Would you be open to speaking with me? I am in U.S. (Chicago) so I am Central Time U.S. I can provide my email for you to send me your availabilty. It is: jfuller@healthcentral.com. Thank you!

Hi there, I have just checked my records and I was, in fact, given an Ozurdex implant in December 2022 before Eylea injections started so hopefully my experiences might be quite helpful to you.

I am free most evenings but I’m going on holiday until 29 May but could possibly be contacted before that if need be.

I will email you with my contact details.
