Anti Veg-F Intravitreal Injections
Anti-VEGF medication injection treatments for Wet Macular Degeneration
A common way to treat wet macular degeneration targets a specific chemical in your body that causes abnormal blood vessels to grow under the retina. That chemical is called vascular endothelial growth factor or VEGF. Several new drug treatments (called anti-VEGF drugs) have been developed for wet AMD that can block the trouble causing VEGF. Blocking VEGF reduces the growth of abnormal blood vessels, slows their leakage, helps to slow vision loss, and in some cases improves vision.
We administrate the anti-VEGF drug (such as Lucentis or Eylea) directly to your eye and this is performed as an outpatient procedure.
The Cork Eye Clinic administrate the highest number of injections given on a weekly basis in Cork

VIEW ALLWhat Our Patients Say
Being of a nervous disposition, I was dreading having someone examine my eyes. On speaking to my optician, I asked him if he could recommend an Ophthalmic Surgeon to help me with my Glaucoma and cataracts. Without hesitation he recommended Mr. Golchin. On meeting Mr. Golchin I was immediately put at ease. He examined my eyes and explained the problems with them and what treatment he was going to do. I am delighted with the treatment I have received from Mr. Golchin and his very friendly and helpful staff at Cork Eye Clinic. I would highly recommend that you visit them.
