  • How he did the injection doesn't even make sense. He scrubbed the face with betadine and draped everything, but didn't even put betadine in the eye which is the most important step to reduce endophthalmitis. He did all these extraneous things like draping the whole face, but didn't even do the most important thing. Don't watch this video if you want to learn how to do intravitreal injections

  • @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

    Don't worry! What you think they didn't they do although it's not seen in this video! Believe me, I have had these injections from DR. Joosse.

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • i work for a retina doctor and i assist in these procedures! its absolutley amazing:)
