Black Spots for over a week!

2 Replies

I had my 10th shot over a week ago and I am still seeing black spots...lots of them and they aren't going away. Should I be worried?

Hi cbintz. Floaters are common after injection for a day or so but as you have had them for over a week, I would suggest you ring your eye clinic/hospital and ask their advice - you should have been given a number to ring after you had your injection in case you had any worries. If you're in the UK, you could also try ringing the Macular Society helpline below:

Good luck and let us know how you get on. All the best. x

Hi I had a larger than normal black disc after recent injection and so I asked the doctor in the clinic who said it was an air bubble and would take about a week to clear
