I suffered (probably still do) from myopic retinopathy and I underwent dynamic laser treatment about 10 years ago, it was very effective and I haven't progressed since. Basically they inject you with something that has to be activated by a certain wavelength of light and by timing the injections with the laser pulses they can just burn the new blood vessels and not the retina in front of the vessels.
My mom suffered from the same ailment a few years later and it appears that the treatment of choice is now an eye injection. It seems to me that the field is moving very fast, and the author of the article has been very unlucky not to have this just a few years later. Here's to hoping that we find a stable non-invasive cure in the very near future.
