I just attended a hospital in Oregon specializing in uveitis as I have again developed a macular edema after cataract surgery in my right eye. I lost vision in my left as it was treated with prednisolone and as I have glaucoma my iop went to 29. Long story short I was told by the institute that the cause could be the denonusab Xgeva. I believe they’re contacting my oncologist asking for it to be stopped. After 5 years I think it’s time but I’m concerned about possible fractures. So it would seem that there is a problematic side effect to the eyes? I’ve never read that before but so far all the other tests are negative abd it’s a process of elimination. Im afraid I don’t have excessive tearing more like dry eyes. Hope you get to the bottom of it Chris
