@chiranp I fully agree that proper use of 5% povidone iodine is very imortant for all intraocular operations. We always instill 0.3% 10 minutes ahead of the injection. In the OR we apply 5% Povidon Iodine on the conjuctival surface of the eye preferably 3 minutes before the actual injection. We believe that this is the most important profylactic procedure in intravitreal therapy. We fear that in most clinics povidon iodine is applied right before the injection, and not 3 minutes before
Does this hurt? I need this procedure to save my vision. Please tell me the truth as to how badly it's going to hurt. I don't want my eye to jerk in pain and the needle break off in my eye. What should I expect?

Watch the video again. What do you call that big dollop of betadine(?) that was put in the corner of the eye at the beginning of the procedure?
