Got good news from Retinal Specialist

[BlueKota]

The abnormal blood vessels that formed under my retina have been reduced to just a small tiny bump, and so far shows no sign of regrowth. He's hopefull that today's shot will clear up the last of it. I still have to go back every six months to make sure there is no reoccurrence, but he said he thinks I may not need any more shots, as long as things continue to remain stable.

He also confirmed what my regular ophthalmologist said, that while there is evidence of cataracts developing, it's likely I won't need surgery for at least 10 more years. I am so grateful to him for making the correct diagnosis of the blood vessel growth being a result of long term severe myopia, and the treatments he gave me.

Fyi they use lenses now for cataracts so you would get closer to 20/20 afterwards.
