Question, How many eye shots have you had for Retinopathy treatment?

[Johnboy60]

I've taken 6 shots in my left eye so far at 450.00 a shot. My eye doctor hasn't told me how many more shots will I need. I have so far two Retinopathy laser treatments.

Thanks

I had one shot followed by a vitrectomy in my left eye which cost $10,000. I lost 50 percent of the vision in my left eye. So far, the laser surgery is keeping my right eye intact.

I've had an eye shot, countless laser surgeries and a vitrectomy all of which cost me nothing, these are the joys of a universal health care system paid out of taxes.

Somebody paid for it.
