thanks for all the replies to my post

I had my sixth round of injections today and have NO PAIN or swelling of the eyelids

They used an alternative to iodine to wipe my face and just one drop into the eyes. They were washed out thoroughly after. I really had been dreading today now so relieved to find the reason for it

that is really good, so pleased that you had no pain. I went for mine last week and I didn’t even realise it had been done until I saw the fluid in my eye, the nurse was so good and washed it out thoroughly after and gave me a lot of anaesthetising drops

That's great Agistri77, I'm really pleased for you as it does create such a misery when too much is used. Let's hope you don't get any more problems in the future.

Are you getting the results of injections? Any improvements in leakage and swelling? And which injection are they giving you.

Not what you're looking for?
