Does Lucentis Help in Treating Central Retinal Vein Occlusion?
September 19, 2010
An article in AJO demonstrates conclusively that Lucentis injections starting at monthly intervals for the first 3 months improved vision significantly in patients with macular edema secondary to CRVO. This confirms a previous study. It’s nice to finally be able to offer these patients hope.

I had kenacort lucentis injection last year, but still up to now no improvement on my sight. What do ido please
it depends on how many injections you got, for what condition, and the viability of your retina. i cannot help you more than that- you must go back to the ophthalmologist and be re-evaluated, and get a a second opinion.
