Retinal Vein conclusion
Posted , 3 users are following.
My Mom diagnosed with Superior macular BRVO, Haemorrhage at Fovea, Peripapillary atrophy (superior macular branch retinal vein occlusion) in her Right Eye and for the past 1 and half years she had been taking injections for the same....Initially they gave her Avastin 3-4 times at a gap of 1.5 - 2 months....but now my Doctor has been giving her Ozurdex at a gap of 2.5-3 months...We havent tried with pellet, Eylea or Penecilin etc yet....I am from India and here the cost of Avastin was around Rs. 8000 and now Ozurdex is costing Rs 30,000...As i understand we cannot claim insurance for this and i have been reading some posts on this just recently....I dont understand medical terms that much...so just wanted to check if there are any other alternatives to this...I mean a cheaper generic injection that wont have any side effects...i guess Ozurdex does have some side effects too...any suggestions on this will be of immense help....
