Intravitreal Injections

Intravitreal Injections
Intravitreal injections are an advanced treatment used to manage retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic macular edema, and retinal vein occlusion. These injections deliver medication directly into the eye, reducing swelling, preventing disease progression, and preserving vision. The procedure is quick, performed under local anesthesia, and involves minimal discomfort. Patients may require multiple injections over time, depending on the severity of their condition. Regular monitoring and follow-ups ensure optimal treatment outcomes. Intravitreal injections have significantly improved the prognosis for many retinal conditions, allowing patients to maintain better vision and prevent irreversible damage. With modern advancements, these injections offer a highly effective, minimally invasive solution for managing complex retinal disorders.
