cloudiness/blurriness after Eylea injection

[Smilemiser]

I had my first eylea injection Tuesday after experiencing a CRVO. I continue to experience cloudiness and blurriness and some floaters. I’ve been in contact with the ophthalmology team, who’ve suggested that this can continue for days to weeks depending on the patient. Also, there are no other signs of infection. Through the cloudiness/blurriness (it isn’t uniform across my vision) I can kind of tell that my visual acuity is improving significantly.

I am curious about the experience of others here after the first eylea injection. How long did the cloudiness and blurriness last for you?

Hi Smilemiser. I can't remember how long the blurriness lasted after my first injection as it was over four years ago, but even now after injections, my vision gets a bit misty for at least a couple of days and then it's fine and as you say, the vision seems to improve.

Thank you. I appreciate the reassurance. It is scary going through this for the first time.

I couldn't agree more!

Hello Smilemiser, this obviously can vary from person to person, i certainly have it for a few days until the eye settles down, you have sensibly checked with your opthalmology team, and they hopefully have reassured you, i am sure you will find an improvement from day to day. Best wishes.

Thank you. I do hope this continues to improve in the days and weeks ahead

Blurriness and sometimes cloudiness usually last from 1 to 2 days after my injection. Best wishes for a good outcome of the injections.
