Long term treatment for Macular degenerative disease

Something good to look for ...

I had wet macula for about 10 year

It got worse with time ... I tried different type of injections ... finally got back to the cheap Avastin product ... and the good news is that my eye respond well to it and is improving from one month treatment to two months. When the pain gets to bad I use just a bit of codeine to get me going to next injection.

My plan is to get to a three months period treatment.

With my good eye doctor.
