A panelist discusses how a 76-year-old patient with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) initially stable on bevacizumab developed recurrent subretinal fluid requiring a switch to aflibercept 2 mg, but after experiencing sterile inflammatory responses to both aflibercept 2 and 8 mg doses, was successfully treated with faricimab every 6 weeks, demonstrating the value of having structurally different anti-VEGF agents to minimize cross-antigenicity when immune responses occur.

A panelist discusses how a 62-year-old patient with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who could never be extended beyond 4-week intervals with aflibercept 2 mg achieved complete macular drying and improved vision with aflibercept 8 mg, though temporary vision loss from acute IOP elevation required dose modification to 0.06 mL (6.86 mg) to maintain efficacy while avoiding pressure-related complications.

A panelist discusses how an 83-year-old patient with diabetic macular edema (DME) who showed suboptimal response to standard anti-VEGF therapies, including aflibercept 2 mg and faricimab, ultimately achieved significant visual and anatomic improvement when switched to high-dose aflibercept (8 mg), demonstrating the enhanced efficacy of the higher molar dose formulation.

An expert discusses evolving best practices in the diagnosis and management of Demodex blepharitis, highlighting collarettes as pathognomonic and sufficient for diagnosis, the importance of targeting high-risk patient groups for treatment, and the promise of a new pharmacologic therapy that shifts care toward a more effective, flexible, and patient-centered approach.
