So far, I'm happy with Vabysmo. Time will tell

I started with Avastatin. Had it for two treatments and then they changed me to Vabysmo. My Retina Specialist seems to think that it is. But my last shot has caused me extreme eye pressure.

However, any treatment decisions should be made in consultation with your eye care specialist who can evaluate your specific situation and recommend the most appropriate treatment option.

Currently FDA-approved treatments for AMD include medications like pegcetacoplan and avacincaptad pegol (Izervay), which work by targeting specific proteins involved in inflammation and AMD progression. To support any medical treatment, you may want to consider:

• Taking AREDS2 formula vitamins (if recommended by your doctor)
• Making healthy lifestyle changes
• Getting regular eye check-ups to monitor your condition
• Discussing potential side effects and benefits of any treatment with your healthcare provider
