Summary

Treatment of exudative age-related macular degeneration has been significantly improved by the advent of Lucentis™( which provides improved vision rather than simply stabilization) is common; however, monthly injections may be required to maintain this effect. It is hypothesized that sustained release fluocinolone acetonide will allow maintenance of the improved vision with fewer Lucentis injections.
