New Retina Radio Journal Club w/ VBS: Aflibercept 8 mg in nAMD: Outcomes After Switching From Faricimab

What happens when patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) show suboptimal response to faricimab (Vabysmo, Genentech/Roche) and are switched to high-dose aflibercept (Eylea HD, Regeneron)? Ben Young, MD, moderates a discussion with Pheobe Mellen, MD, and Jordan Deaner, MD, exploring real-world outcomes from a retrospective study of 135 eyes.
