That's a question for your eye clinic, we can't answer that Wetter especially as it's been three weeks. Good luck.

Good morning Wetter, I have 3 black (more grey than back) spots in left and 0ne black in right eye, but they only appear in sun light. At first I was swatting flies that were not there but once I knew it was my eyes I learned to look past them. If yours are the same as mine its part of the M.D. if not, sorry cannot help.The true black one in right eye is a bird. Ooh the joy of macular degeneration.

Hello Wetter, black spots are quite common after injections, they normally disappear after a couple of days but can vary of course, always best to check with your clinic for reassurance.

Better to consult your eye doctor.

Hi, I have permanent floaters since having injections, it’s like looking through a black snowstorm and they are in a circular formation. I’ve had them a year and I am getting better at ignoring them.

Having had injections now monthly for 10 years I would say these are floaters they are harmless and your brain will learn to ignore them. I am pretty sure that is why the ophthalmologist will say on your next visit

Wetter,

If you haven't done so already it would be a good idea to contact your eye clinic for their advice. It is always best to check with them if you are in doubt about any post injection symptoms.

Kind regards
