Explained what the initial injectable medicine could do. When the second injectable medicine was being considered it sounded like it could provide a method of slowing retinal degradation. Had to wait for that one to be approved for use since more clinical trials had to be conducted. The two injectable medicines have been used two weeks apart since the insurers changed their approval of the same day same appointment usage of both injectables. The most recent vision test of the eye with the wet macular degeneration produced a result that many older adults with healthy eyes would consider okay for their vision test result.
