Assessing the Evidence for Extending Treatment Intervals in nAMD & DME Management: Expert Insights into Innovative Approaches

The role of calendars may be growing more important when managing patients with nAMD and DME. How many weeks can patients go between injections with newer anti-VEGF agents versus older options?

In this podcast, Murtaza Adam, MD; Laxmi Devisetty, MD, Hong-Uyen Hua, MD; and Sherrol Reynolds, OD; share insights into determining appropriate treatment regimens with these therapies and supporting patient adherence.
