Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

8 mg Aflibercept in Diabetic Macular Edema
Q: What about for Forisomab?
I use three loading doses for Forisomab, extending treatment similarly after that.
8 mg Aflibercept in Diabetic Macular Edema
Q: Do you use loading doses?
I typically load with three doses and then extend treatment based on initial edema.
8 mg Aflibercept in Diabetic Macular Edema
Q: How do you use 8 milligrams in diabetic macular edema in the real world, Eric?
I started with harder-to-treat patients but now use it more as a first-line agent due to its durability.
Does Pegcetacoplan Treatment Affect Dry Macular Degeneration?
Q: Is there room for further investigation of micronutrient supplementation and advanced AMD or not?
Yes, there's potential for further investigation. The results from post-hoc analyses should be seen as hypothesis generating, and a prospective trial could provide more definitive insights.
Does Pegcetacoplan Treatment Affect Dry Macular Degeneration?
Q: What do you recommend for patients who have been taking these vitamins for years?
Dr. Hahn initially recommended against taking ERDs vitamins for advanced AMD but later became more open to patients continuing them after hopeful results emerged. However, after further negative findings, he has now become less enthusiastic about recommending them to this population.
