Retina Injections
Intravitreal injections are among the most widely used and well-established treatments in modern retinal care. They involve the precise delivery of medication directly into the vitreous chamber of the eye, allowing therapeutic agents to reach the retina at concentrations that eye drops or oral medications simply can't achieve.
What They Treat
Retinal injections are used across a broad range of conditions, including wet age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, retinal vein occlusion with macular involvement, and abnormal blood vessel growth. The medications most commonly used are anti-VEGF agents, which work by blocking the growth factor responsible for leaking vessels and retinal swelling.
What to Expect
The procedure is performed in-office and is far more comfortable than most guests anticipate. Numbing drops are applied beforehand, and the injection itself takes only seconds. Most guests tolerate it well and resume normal activities quickly. Depending on your condition and treatment response, injections may be administered on a regular schedule over months or years.

Frequently Asked Questions In-Office Retina Treatments
Are these procedures covered by insurance?
Many in-office retinal treatments, including intravitreal injections and laser procedures, are covered by Medicare and most major insurance plans when medically necessary. Coverage for newer treatments like Valeda may vary. Our team can help clarify what to expect from a coverage standpoint before your procedure.
How long do in-office retinal procedures take?
Most in-office retinal procedures are completed within 30 to 60 minutes from arrival to departure, including preparation and post-procedure instructions. The treatments themselves often take only minutes. Your care team will give you a clear picture of what to expect for your specific procedure.
Will I need someone to drive me home after treatment?
For most in-office retinal procedures, having a driver is strongly recommended. Numbing drops and dilating agents used during treatment can temporarily affect your vision and comfort. Your care team will advise you specifically based on your procedure and individual circumstances.
How do I know which treatment is right for my condition?
Treatment recommendations are based on a thorough evaluation of your retinal health, the specific condition being treated, and how your disease has responded to any prior care. Your provider will walk you through the options that make sense for your situation and explain the reasoning behind every recommendation.
