公为人清方敏默,为善不倦,而喜自晦敛,若不欲人知。
公為人清方敏默,為善不倦,而喜自晦斂,若不欲人知。
New Jerusalem Bible Matthew 6
So when you give alms, do not have it trumpeted before you; this is what the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets to win human admiration. In truth I tell you, they have had their reward.
Bible Hub Matthew 6:2
ESV: “Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

Age-related macular degeneration
Macular degeneration (AMD, ARMD)
Epiretinal membrane Macular Pucker -> Macropsia (Aniseikonia) iseikonic lenses - balanced magnification properties, contact lenses, Shaw Lens,
白內障 EDOF, Cataract: Intraocular lens IOL, Multifocal IOLs can also be Trifocal IOLs or extended depth of focus (EDOF) lenses.
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors for ophthalmic use: Aflibercept (Eylea) and Ranibizumab (Lucentis)
Bevacizumab (Avastin) is not FDA-approved for use in ophthalmic indications; however, a large body of medical literature supports its use in several ophthalmic indications. Avastin is injected every 4-6 weeks. When used for these indications, bevacizumab must be compounded. The use of pharmacies following the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) Chapter 797 requirements for compounding sterile preparations is recommended.
Aflibercept (Eylea, also known as VEGF-Trap Eye) - provides another vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor for neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration and mascular edema following central retinal vein occulsion. Aflibercept acts as a soluble decoy receptor that binds VEGF and thereby can inhibit the binding and activation of VEGF receptors. Eylea is injected every 4-8 weeks.
Ranibizumab (Lucentis) - indicated for the treatment of patients with:
- Neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
- Macular edema following retinal vein occlusion
- Diabetic macular edema.
Lucentis is injected every 4 weeks.
Pegaptanib (Macugen) - indicated for the treatment of patients with Neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Macugen is injected every 4-6 weeks.
