ozurdex steroid implant

I had my first steroid eye implant this week. Immediately following the injection, my eyesight is much worse. I can see thread-like filaments and it's looks as if I am looking through gauze and am wondering if the implant leaves a residue behind or could it be bleeding? I know I have to give the eye time to heal but even so, it's rather worrying.
