Detailed Description
In naive patients, the two first intravitreal injections will be studied. Within the first injection, no wetting agent will be delivered. Within 72hours after this first intravitreal injections, patients will be contacted by phone by a nurse to complete questionnaires on quality of life and on ocular pain and eye discomfort.
After the second injection, a treatment with wetting agent will be prescribed. With 72hours after the second injection, quality of life, ocular discomfort as well as acceptability and tolerance of the eye drops will also be assessed by a phone questionnaire.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Optive after the second anti-VEGF injection Naive patients requiring intravitreal injection. Patients will be enrolled in this study within the 2 first intravitreal injections to assess quality of life and ocular discomfort without wetting agent (ie after the first injection) and with wetting agent (ie after the second injection) |
Drug: Optive
Optive eye drops will be prescribed to each included patients after their second intravitreal injection; patients will received 1 drop in the affected eye 2 times a day during 3 days
