I have had macular degeneration due to Ischemic Retinal Disease and have received Eyelea interocular injections 4 to 5 times a year for some time and my vision has remained steady. I had one episode of rejection and serious temperary vision loss after have omnipaque for an angiogram, but recovered from that well.

Hello,
How long have you had MD? Did it start as dry or wet due to Ischemic Retinal Disease? So, the injections help you keep your normal vision? No waves or discoloration or black spots? I'm still a mild intermediate. I'm not even sure when I was early. It's a bit mind-blowing because I saw my opthalmologist annually with dilation then covid hit and I couldn't be seen for 18 months to 2 years. Some time between 2020 - 2022 I started early and progressed to intermediate. A little unheard of but here I am. And I'm 56 and blurry afraid of my future.
Thank you for responding. It feels good to have others like me to chat with.
