    I am getting Izervay every 2 months with good results. Are you being treated in one or both eyes? Warm regards, Sharon Moore patient leader

      I have GA I have been told that there is a study getting the injections in the stomach instead of the eye. Does anybody know more about this?

      I have heard nothing about injections in the abdomen. I will do a search to see if I can find any information for you. Was it your doctor that told you about the abdominal injections? Warm regards, Sharon Moore patient leader

    I’m managing the shots in my right eye very well.The only thing I don’t like is I can’t get any water in my eye for 3 days after the shot.That is no shower or washing my hair. Trying to rig up a water proof patch for my eye so I can wash my hair.
