I saw my retina specialist today. I had another injection of Avastin (see previous posts if you don't know what this is or what it is for). However, prior to injection my retinal scan showed much improvement from last month. My vision is at 20/70 (and as the doc said I had a 6 line improvement of acuity). Last month it was at 20/200. The good news is that this treatment works wonderfully for my condition as long as it is an actual blood vessel growing. Also the fluid/blood that had accumulated was about 90% absorbed. I guess I have greeted today with cautious optimism. It won't get much better than the 20/70 because the level was reached by an expansion of a scar that is permanent and non-reversible. I'll take 20/70 over 20/200 any day. Thank you God for a great outcome today.
That's great news! I'm so glad the last treatment worked so well! Good news does so much to brighten a day - thanks for sharing.
