Keeping Patients at the Center of GA Therapy: Dosing Schedules, AREDS Vitamins, and Photobiomodulation

Should GA therapy start monthly—or is less-than-monthly treatment enough? In episode 3 of this New Retina Radio miniseries, moderator John Kitchens, MD joins David Eichenbaum, MD; Margaret Chang, MD, MS; and Ferhina Ali, MD, MPH, to share best practices in real-world GA care. The panel debates dosing strategy in light of long-term data, compares safety/efficacy considerations for pegcetacoplan vs avacincaptad pegol (including first-injection inflammation risk), and offers tips for initiating therapy in monocular patients. They also unpack evidence around AREDS vitamins and early experiences with photobiomodulation.
