Early anatomical rescue after switching to aflibercept 8 mg in faricimab-refractory neovascular AMD

In faricimab-refractory nAMD, switching to aflibercept 8 mg was associated with CST thinning; not yet practice-changing without randomized comparison.

Why it matters
First cohort reporting CST recovery after switching from faricimab; suggests a rescue pathway for refractory nAMD, though observational design limits certainty.
Prior evidence
No prior-evidence claim in abstract.
Limitations
Small retrospective cohort (n=32); no comparator arm; unadjusted confounders.
