hello..please get yr fluroscein angiogram ..and if there is leakage/abnormal vessels in the report? if yes then u require treatment..
avestin is a wonderful medicine..if doctor says then u should get it because this is the only safest medicine available(rest r still in experimental stage)or very costly ..since our medical science has very limited medicines for retina..and avestin seems to work in the best way possible,,please go ahead as per yr doc's advice..
tell me the fluroscein report and OCT report..
also get the colour doppler of carotid, ECHO heart, and other blood investigations like lipid profile..
please take care..u will be fine soon..
