The Susvimo Patient Assistance Program is free to apply. Our $69.95 per month covers full advocacy. Compounded bevacizumab is very cheap for standard anti-VEGF therapy. Susvimo dramatically reduces treatment frequency (twice yearly refills vs monthly injections) — major patient benefit. Retinal specialist surgical expertise required.
Complete a simple eligibility form so our team can determine if you may qualify for Susvimo assistance.
Our specialists gather documentation, complete applications, and coordinate with your prescriber and the assistance program.
Once approved, your Susvimo is delivered through the assistance program while we manage refills and annual renewals.
Many patients try discount cards first. Here’s why the Patient Assistance Program through AffordMyPrescriptions is the better long-term solution for Susvimo:
Prices fluctuate — savings aren’t guaranteed month-to-month
Copay accumulators may prevent savings from counting toward your deductible
Coupon cards expire and require constant renewal
Still $12,000/implant + refills per month even with the best discount
Cannot be used with Medicare, Medicaid, or government insurance
Fixed $69.95/month — never changes regardless of retail price
Medication supplied directly through the assistance program
We manage all paperwork, refills, and annual renewals
Medicare Part D patients accepted
If denied, we explore alternative savings paths on your behalf
Eligibility is generally determined by annual household income and insurance status. Most programs follow guidelines that include limits of up to $40,000 for individuals, $60,000 for couples, and $100,000 for larger families. Because requirements vary by program and household, we encourage you to contact AffordMyPrescriptions directly so we can review your specific situation and determine if you qualify for Susvimo assistance.
Susvimo is the first refillable ocular implant for retinal disease — surgically implanted device continuously delivers ranibizumab, refilled every 6 months, replacing monthly intravitreal injections. Novel drug delivery paradigm for chronic retinal disease.
How It Works:
Neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, and diabetic retinopathy are leading causes of vision loss driven by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-mediated pathological neovascularization and vascular leakage. Anti-VEGF therapy revolutionized outcomes — but requires frequent intravitreal injections (monthly to every 3–4 months) — burden for patients and clinical systems. Susvimo is a refillable ocular implant surgically placed in the vitreous cavity through the pars plana — contains ranibizumab reservoir that continuously releases medication into the vitreous. Refilled every 6 months by needle injection through the eye. Provides continuous anti-VEGF exposure without monthly intravitreal injections. Vabysmo (faricimab bispecific) and Eylea HD (high-dose aflibercept) also aim to reduce injection frequency but via longer-interval standard injections.
Form and Use:
Susvimo implant surgically placed by retinal specialist. Refills every 6 months. Ophthalmology follow-up. Consider baseline standard anti-VEGF injections before Susvimo implant.
Generic Availability:
No generic Susvimo. Standard anti-VEGF options: bevacizumab (Avastin — off-label intravitreal, compounded, very cheap; brand IV Avastin much more expensive), ranibizumab (Lucentis brand; and Byooviz, Cimerli biosimilars), aflibercept (Eylea — brand and Eylea HD 8mg — brand; and Yesafili, Opuviz biosimilars), faricimab (Vabysmo — anti-VEGF/anti-Ang2 bispecific; every 3–4 months many patients), brolucizumab (Beovu — brand). Susvimo offers 6-month refills via implant — differentiator. American Academy of Ophthalmology guidance. AMD alliance and other patient resources.
Warnings:
Endophthalmitis (serious eye infection — risk with any intravitreal procedure including implant surgery and refills), rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage, conjunctival wound issues (dehiscence, retraction — implant complications), traumatic cataract, intraocular pressure changes, embryo-fetal considerations, cardiovascular risk (theoretical with systemic VEGF blockade — likely minimal given local delivery), septum dislodgement (implant complication). Other: conjunctival hemorrhage/injection, eye pain, IOP changes. Retinal specialist expertise and comprehensive ophthalmology follow-up essential.
Initial implant $10,000–$13,000 (surgical procedure + implant) + refills ~$2,000 every 6 months. Compare to standard anti-VEGF injections (monthly Vabysmo ~$2,200/dose, Eylea ~$1,900/dose, compounded bevacizumab ~$50/dose off-label). Susvimo eliminates monthly injection burden.
Standard anti-VEGF (Lucentis, Eylea, Vabysmo, Avastin off-label) requires intravitreal injections monthly to every 3–4 months. Susvimo is a surgical implant that continuously releases ranibizumab — refilled every 6 months. Dramatically reduces treatment burden for chronic retinal disease. First refillable ocular implant paradigm.
Both aim to reduce injection burden vs monthly. Vabysmo is a bispecific anti-VEGF/anti-Ang2 antibody — standard intravitreal injections every 3–4 months in many patients. Susvimo delivers continuous ranibizumab via 6-monthly refilled implant. Susvimo requires surgical implant procedure; Vabysmo is standard intravitreal injection. Choice by patient preference, disease response, and shared decision-making.
Bevacizumab (Avastin) is used off-label intravitreally for retinal disease at dramatically lower cost than approved products — commonly ~$50 per dose compounded. Similar efficacy to ranibizumab in some head-to-head trials. However off-label with theoretical concerns about compounding contamination. Widely used given cost differential.
Endophthalmitis risk with implant surgery and refills, retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage, conjunctival wound complications, IOP changes, septum dislodgement, cataract. Serious eye complications possible — retinal specialist expertise essential.
Refillable ocular implant transforms treatment burden for chronic retinal disease. Our advocacy team is ready — $69.95 per month, or free if we cannot help.
