Good luck every one keep taking the tablets AL.GEE.

Thank you for posting this, my dad has wet AMD too and has been taking macu shield but hasn't known if it does anything or not, this has given us a lot more hope!

Hi algee

Glad your wet MD has finally dried up. Well done! Mine dried up after just 3 eylea inj. and was given 2 further ones just to make sure. I have now been without inj. for 15 weeks and no sign of new vascular activity as yet. I wonder how long this lull will last before it starts again. Do let us know how you fare if and when your injections are halted. It seems impossible to find a possible time range of reccurence on any website. All the best.
