This retrospective study evaluated 35 patients who received a mean of 5.9 injections over a one-year period. Some received Avastin or Lucentis alone, others Avastin in combination with triamcinolone or dexamethasone. A separate povidone-iodine preparation, speculum, needle, and syringe were used for each eye. Outcomes were positive and no patient requested alternating unilateral injections, after receiving bilateral injections. American Journal of Ophthalmology, July 2009
