No class action lawsuits right now. But many offers by lawyers to represent individuals. Can’t afford those.

I think most of us on this board are aware of this. I believe the lawyers are looking for cases of provable damage to the eye from the silicone - rather than just the annoying presence of the silicone bubble appearing in the field of vision.

Yes, there are many lawsuits going on.

Just search Google for Silicone Avastin lawsuits and you will find many.

Yes, there are actually several class action lawsuits for silicone left in the eye from Avastin injections. Do a google search for Avastin and silicone drops, and they will come up immediately! However, the lawyers are kind of picky who they take on. I have over 50 silicone drops in my eye and was told that unless I have surgery they wouldn't take my case! It's crazy stuff.

Not what you're looking for?
