this is a very good question and we can give you some things to consider, but it is a medical question for your doctor to answer. Everyone is different and only a doctor really knows your situation. I would worry that I would lose my vision if I stopped my shots. Have you asked your specialist what they think? Does the specialist say your shots aren't working? I'm wondering if you have considered changing the medication in the shots. Some people in our community say they have tried quite a few before they find one that works well for them. Other people have said that it took quite a while for their shots to make a difference. Have you been having the shots for very long? Wendy, Patient Leader.
