Aflibercept (Eylea)

Aflibercept (Eylea) is a medication used to treat certain eye conditions, such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and macular edema. It works by blocking specific proteins that promote abnormal blood vessel growth and fluid leakage in the eye, helping to reduce fluid buildup and preserve vision. Administered through injection into the eye by a healthcare professional, Aflibercept can slow vision loss, improve visual clarity in some cases, and maintain eye health. It is typically used regularly as part of a treatment plan prescribed by an eye specialist.
