How often are you receiving injections? Do you feel that they're happening too often, or not enough? How does your doctor feel about the cadence of injections?
Your response may help someone who was just recently diagnosed with wet macular degeneration!

I have wet AMD in my left eye and I receive my injections every 12 weeks or so, which is the schedule my specialist recommends. That can vary a bit but I have been on that schedule for about 2 years and it works well for me.

About every 4 weeks for 6 months now. It does help.

I’ve been receiving injections for over three years, primarily using Eyelea, most recently the HD formula. I don’t really have a stable injection schedule. I had 5 week intervals for awhile, then we decided to try HD. At 8 week and 7 week intervals a small amount of fluid was visible, so now my interval is 6 weeks. I am grateful that I still have 20/20 vision with my glasses.

I've been receiving injections on my right eye for 11 years now (with a one year hiatus early on). I believe I'm on a two-month schedule, but will have to double-check. I started with Avastin and eventually my doctor switched me to Eyelea. My left eye held steady for five years, but in the last year or so I've been getting injections after 10-11 weeks. Had swelling in my blood vessels if we pushed it further out than that.
