Conditions

Chorioretinal Vascular Disease

Brief summary

The primary objective of the study is to determine if the pre-filled syringe (PFS) supports successful preparation and accurate administration of an aflibercept injection. The secondary objective of the study is to assess ocular safety in the study eye.
