The Anti-VEGF Epidemic: What are the Implications for Glaucoma Services?

The early reports on intraocular bevacizumab injections talked about a transient predictable probably volume-related rise in intraocular pressure (IOP). As the usage of the drug increased across the globe, sustained IOP elevation was noted. This article provides an insightly into the causes of IOP s...

description The early reports on intraocular bevacizumab injections talked about a transient predictable probably volume-related rise in intraocular pressure (IOP). As the usage of the drug increased across the globe, sustained IOP elevation was noted. This article provides an insightly into the causes of IOP spikes and its impact on glaucoma practice.
