Had CNV/AMD in left eye 2016, didn't know if I could hold still for injections, hence no central vision in that eye.
CNV/AMD started in right eye in January 2018. No choice about going for injections. Had injections until March 2020 when oedema stopped. The small bump in my RPE, as in the first of my "photos" remained and was still there until this new event. The hospital did not know what it was (although the smaller bumps further out may be drusen, I have not been diagnosed with dry AMD).
After just one injection of Eylea, this new oedema disappeared. You can see in May though (when I had my third loading injection) that there is again another bump in my RPE. You can see its size had decreased by June. I was offered an injection then, or a check-up in four weeks (and phone in if there was bad deterioration). I elected for the latter. However, as you see, when I went in last Tuesday, this "bump" was bigger again. They gave me another injection, but still say they don't know what it is.
The letter I go from them Thursday says "slight increase in parafoveal SHEM".
"parafovea" or "perifoveal"? SHEM – something "epiretinal membrane"?
