Indications
Lucentis ranibizumab injection is indicated for the treatment of neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration in adults; treatment of decreased visual acuity associated with diabetic macular edema following retinal vein occlusion (RVO) as monotherapy or in combination with laser coagulation in patients who have previously undergone laser coagulation, diabetic retinopathy, etc.
Dosage of Lucentis
Lucentis ranibizumab injection can be applied only as an injection into the vitreous body.
The recommended dose for the injection is 0.5 mg (monthly dosing) once a month.
The first three injections are performed at a frequency of 1 time/month sequentially for 3 months. Treatment is stopped (stabilization phase), and visual acuity is checked regularly (at least 1 time/month). With a decrease in visual acuity by more than 5 letters on the ETDRS visual acuity scale (1 line according to the Snellen table), Lucentis treatment is resumed.
An interval of at least 1 month should be observed between the introduction of two doses.
Rules of Administration
Before the Lucentis injection procedure, it is necessary to carry out appropriate disinfection of the eyelid skin and the area around the eyes, anesthesia of the conjunctiva, and therapy with a wide range of antimicrobial drugs.
Antimicrobial drugs should be instilled into the conjunctival sac 3 times a day for 3 days before and after drug administration.
Lucentis should be inserted into the vitreous body 3.5-4 mm posterior to the limbus, avoiding the horizontal meridian and guiding the needle towards the center of the eyeball. The volume of the injected drug is 0.05 ml.
The next injection of the drug is carried out in the other half of the sclera.
Since intraocular pressure (IOP) may increase within 60 minutes following intravitreal injection with Lucentis, IOP, patients should be monitored for the perfusion of the optic nerve head.
In one session, the introduction of Lucentis is carried out only in one eye.
