Changing to Vabysmo

I'm thinking of asking my RS to change me from Eylea to Vabysmo (if appropriate) to try to get a longer break between shots. Has anyone's doctor changed them to Vabysmo for this reason, even if their current medication was working? Wendy, Patient Leader.

  1. Hi Wendy..I asked about going to Eyelea HD. For that same reason. He said he felt it was too long ... at least for my situation.

    Also on an administrative issue, I can no longer log on to MD site. Emailed them yesterday. Have not heard back. It's weekend so probably why. On my Kindle so it works.

    Hope you get answers to your situation. ๐Ÿ‘

    1. thanks for your reply. I was thinking about Eylea HD too. How long was it that your doctor thought was "too long" for you? Wendy, Patient Leader.

  2. Still no deal on pc so on Kindle. Don't see my reply to you and your post back. He did not indicate how long but in looking at Eyela HD web info, it indicates up to 4 months. I don't want to go that long as I want my good eye checked frequently. Don't trust Amsler all the way. Regards..

    1. up to 4 months is a long time. I agree about the Amsler Grid. It is only a tool, certainly nothing like a full examination. I'm sorry you can't login on your pc. Does the Kindle accept your username and password? Wendy, Patient Leader.

  3. Hi. Yep it is too long. I'm up tomorrow for #4 poke...As I call them.๐Ÿ˜
    Still no deal on my laptop but the Kindle works fine.
    I'll let you know how my visit worked out.
    Regards...

    1. best of luck for tomorrow. I'll look forward to hearing that you had a good session with the doctor. Wendy, Patient Leader.

  4. Thanks so much. As always fingers crossed. I'll be in touch..๐Ÿ‘
