Emerging anti-VEGF agents offer enhanced durability and anatomic outcomes in retinal disease.
A recent Ophthalmology Times Case-Based Roundtable discussed the structural differences among newer second-generation anti-VEGF agents and their implications for clinical efficacy and treatment durability.
The discussion highlighted real-world experiences and evidence regarding extended treatment intervals and sustained disease control with these newer therapies.
Stewart, MD, summarized the key takeaways from the discussion.
He presented a case of an 83-year-old woman with diabetic macular edema (DME) who underwent temporal grid laser photocoagulation and received bevacizumab intravitreal injections every 4 to 6 weeks.
