1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,583
Every patient thinks this… but
almost no one says it out loud.

2
00:00:02,783 --> 00:00:04,701
‘What if this makes things worse?

3
00:00:05,101 --> 00:00:05,651
’

4
00:00:05,851 --> 00:00:08,176
I’ve heard that fear
thousands of times.

5
00:00:08,176 --> 00:00:10,266
But the reality is this: Untreated

6
00:00:10,266 --> 00:00:12,212
retinal disease causes far more

7
00:00:12,212 --> 00:00:14,446
damage than the injection
ever will.

8
00:00:14,446 --> 00:00:16,091
Avastin works by stopping leaky

9
00:00:16,091 --> 00:00:18,286
blood vessels before they
scar the retina.

10
00:00:18,286 --> 00:00:20,225
Most patients tell me afterward:

11
00:00:20,225 --> 00:00:22,648
‘That wasn’t nearly as bad as I
imagined.’

12
00:00:22,648 --> 00:00:25,809
The real risk isn’t the injection
— it’s delaying treatment.

13
00:00:25,809 --> 00:00:27,431
If vision matters to you or your

14
00:00:27,431 --> 00:00:29,989
family, consistency matters more
than comfort.

15
00:00:29,989 --> 00:00:32,993
Follow for calm, honest
explanations about eye care.
