Abstract
The development and approval of anti-VEGF drugs for intravitreal injection has transformed the treatment and prognosis of several ocular conditions, including age-related macular degeneration and retinal vascular occlusion (the subject of this article). Their role in the treatment of ocular conditions is likely to continue to expand owing to the common pathway that VEGF plays in multiple retinal disorders. While important strides have been made, an important treatment challenge is the dosing frequency and the burden that this places on the patient and healthcare providers.
