  • Retinal Fluid Fluctuation’s Impact on Long-Term Visual Acuity (Ep. 3 of 3)
    Dec 4 2025
    Can smarter strategies to tame retinal fluid fluctuations actually improve long-term vision? In episode 3 of this miniseries, host Jay Sridhar, MD, and panelists Durga Borkar, MD, MMCi, and Christina Weng, MD, MBA, examine the data linking sustained delivery of therapy, reductions in retinal thickness changes, and positive long-term vision outcomes. After the break, the trio looks ahead to sustained TKI therapy via EYP-1901 (Duravyu, EyePoint Pharmaceuticals) by examining data from the DAVIO-2 study. Drs. Sridhar, Borkar, and Weng are paid consultants of EyePoint Pharmaceuticals; however, the statements made are the opinions of Drs.

  • Retinal Fluid Fluctuation’s Impact on Long-Term Visual Acuity (Ep. 2 of 3)
    Dec 4 2025
    Do retinal fluid fluctuations quietly erode long-term vision? In episode 2 of a 3-part roundtable series, moderator Jay Sridhar, MD joins guests Maggie Runner, MD, and Veeral Sheth, MD, MBA, to translate key data into clinic-ready tactics. They unpack how volatility—not just volume—of fluid correlates with outcomes, which fluid compartments matter most, and why durability reduces “yo-yo” anatomy. Drs.
