Suggest Treatment For Myopia
Dear Sir
I hope this email will reach the right person/doctor and I get a response as soon as possible
My sister is 29 years old and she has high myopia in both eyes 31 degrees in each
This morning she woke up and a blank dot in the middle of her left eye. Her doctor told us that this case is called Choroidal Neovascularization
She will be have her first VEGF injection this afternoon and she is supposed to have another 2 within the coming 2 months
My question is is there’s anything we can do to save her eye? Surgery?
I wish during these holidays to find someone has an answer or a solution for my sister

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.
I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that your sister is having pathological myopia.
One of the complications of pathological myopia is choroidal neovascularization. This is treated by intravitreal VEGF injection as told by your doctor.
Hence the advice told by your doctor is right and do consult him for further treatment.
Hope this is helpful to you.
Thank you
