"I've had wet type Macular Degeneration in my right eye for about 12 years. Started treatment with Avastin, went to Lucentis and Eylea. Each worked better than the previous. With Eylea, I was down to a shot every 9 weeks. My corrected vision in that eye was 20/20, but by the 9th week, it usually began to deteriorate again. We started using Vabysmo about a year ago and my leakage and retinal swelling have diminished significantly. I'm currently at 16 weeks with no visits scheduled for another 2 months. No issues. It's more viscous than Eylea and takes a few hours more for me to see clearly after the shot, but the results are excellent and very much worth it."

"Vabysmo has dried the fluid in my eye more completely than Eylea did, and so far, it has enabled the interval between shots to be extended from four weeks (Eylea) to eight weeks! I am hopeful that the interval will be further extended in the future."

"I have been dealing with an eye infection after receiving Vabysmo in June. The infection finally cleared up. I was injected again with Vabysmo on September 11. Now I have inflammation in my eye that is being treated with steroid drops. My vision is cloudy with many floaters. I just pray my eye clears up soon."

"I lost 85% of one eye and then it began in the other, with similar rapidity, even with shots. Started using Vabysmo as soon as it became available. It almost immediately stopped further deterioration with much lowered pressure, almost nonexistent leakage, and some improved clarity. I am very happy with this treatment."

"When Eylea was found to be ineffective after about 1 year of monthly injections, Vabysmo was tried, and after three monthly injections, evidence of leakage was gone. Last visit was so good that no injection was required. No side effects experienced other than the bother of getting injections into the eye."

"I have had macular degeneration in my right eye for 8 years, in my left eye for 3 years. I used Eylea the entire time and switched to Vabysmo a little over two months ago. I went from a person who was highly functional to someone who is now plagued with 'huge' moving floaters that are making me dizzy. In my left eye alone, the change for the worse has been dramatic, I can barely read! And out of the clear blue, I've now developed a cataract in my right eye. I am running back to Eylea, and I just pray that the results from Vabysmo can be reversed. This drastic change can only be attributed to Vabysmo, and I wish to God I never tried this drug. I'm happy for people that have had success with Vabysmo, but for me, the results are a game changer, I'm heartbroken!"

"Two other drugs I have taken in the past have helped my macular degeneration partially, but then stopped helping, leaving my eyesight still extremely impaired. Vabysmo is helping my eyesight improve. There have been no side effects."

"Since using Vabysmo, the doctor has increased the time between injections from 4-5 weeks to 8-9. Otherwise, the results and effects are the same as those of the previous drug he used. My vision neither improves nor diminishes."

"Unknown whether will stabilize vision. I don’t think it has improved so far. But I don’t think that’s gotten any worse either. I’m sure a retinal specialist can tell by looking at the pictures. I would be overjoyed if my vision just stayed stable as I am still able to read."

"About one year after cataract surgery, my right eye was treated for wet AMD. The result was a miracle; my vision was completely restored. About 3 months into my treatment, my left eye was stricken. However, the treatment yielded a not-so-favorable result. The floaters are so bad, it's like looking through gravel, with blurry areas. I'm very concerned. The cure on this eye is worse than the disease."

"I had a side effect 3 weeks after the injection, though it wasn't my first injection. A few days later, my other eye that also had the same injection had the same side effect. Watery eye and blurry vision. Thankfully, my doc is on top of it all and all is good. Thankful for these meds and professionals!"

"I have erythema nodosum autoimmune. Did not have a flare in a while. Some time after injection, it came out. I'm truly not sure, will take my injection next week to see if it happens again. Otherwise, it did last the length of time."

"I have responded well to Vabysmo, and my next injection is in 3 months. However, after the injections, my entire eye turns red and swollen. I am not able to function the first day of the injection as it looks like my eye is floating in blood. It has slowed my AMD, but the side effects are difficult."

"First time using Vabysmo after several attempts with Alya. So far, so good, and no noticeable side effects. As only one eye is affected with AMD, do experience slight imbalance due to two different eye vision distortion - is this normal?"

"I have progressed from injections every 5 weeks to every 8 weeks over the last two years. Vision is not distorted following injections in both eyes and I am able to drive myself to appointments."

"I am experiencing severe dizziness and vertigo. It does help my vision, but I am not sure I can continue it as my balance, etc. has been so affected."
