I never gave up hope on clearing up wet Mac in one eye and two years later in the other. I now have 20/22 in both eyes. I really do not mind the injections at all. I must admit I found a team of fantastic Drs related to mother Mayo in Rochester Mn. I am on preventable injections every 3 months. It is a gift to be able to receive treatment that did not exist 50 years ago. Never give up.
