The drug started out as a chemo drug and is now used, in a tiny fraction, injected into the white of the eye with a quick shot from a very small needle.

It is also used for something known as myopic degeneration which can happen to highly nearsighted people. In those cases, the injections often do not have to be taken for an extended period of time. I think with wet macular degeneration, the shots are given regularly, if they are working.

I think the treatment has been around for at least ten years, maybe more, so it has a definite success record.

Yes, Boomer, she has and is doing the shots. Unfortunately she is now losing cells making the situation very difficult. Viscous condition.
