Intravitreal injection is the administration of medication directly into the vitreous cavity
of the eye. It is used to treat retinal conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, age-related
macular degeneration, and vascular diseases of the retina.
The procedure is performed under sterile conditions, with local anesthesia, and usually
takes only a few minutes. It is generally painless and can be a very effective method for
preserving or restoring vision.
Treatment often requires multiple sessions, so regular monitoring and communication
with your ophthalmologist are essential.
