Injections are difficult but well worth it. It works even better for people whose macular degeneration isn't as aggressive as mine.

I have had 6 monthly injections in my left eye so far, and my doctor is very pleased. The sight was 20/80 when I started treatment, and is now 20/32. He said I should continue to take the treatments.
