Probably not but to be sure it's worth mentioning at your eye clinic.

I have had several steroid injections in my hips, nothing has been said about it reacting adversely with Lucentis however, a few months ago my dentist was concerned that the steroid injections could have implications for dental work. In the event, the work involving an implant was not needed!

The only problem it might entail but a short one would be a ride in the iop ( eye pressure) it would def be worth telling those at the eye clinic that you had had one done just so they check the pressure unless they usually do.

Not what you're looking for?
