"Very expensive drug ($9000) - only use if covered by insurance. Kaiser gave me this drug, and I have had it in my eye for 2 years, and it's working. I have had glaucoma eye surgery in my eye to keep eye pressure low. The only negative thing is that it leaves a very small capsule in the eye that does not dissolve. So my Dr. does not think I can use this drug more than 2 or so times. I may switch back to another drug that works up to 3-6 months per injection and costs much less."
