The practice here is to use bevacizumab for intravitreal injection as (1.25mg/0.05ml) injection where we prepared it and dispensed it as a prefilled injection for Retina Clinics
It is prepared under regular aseptic techniques with 2 weeks validity from day of preparation.
As for lidocaine we use the topical gel form and this is regular practice as patient is already receive (Oxybuprocaine Hydrochloride) at assessment which will do the anesthesia
Hope I could help
