Very disappointing visit today, possible PDT treatment and switch to avastin
The discussion was whether I am no longer responding to
Eylea
and we either have switch to Avastin or Lucentis and how we might possibly add PDT treatment. Has anyone had PDT treatments? If so, what was your experience?

Has anyone had an iodine drop instilled 20 minutes before actual injection?
I had my third
eylea
injection yesterday. Each one was done by a different person and each injection and aftermath was a different experience. This time, to my surprise, I was given an idodine drop (the nurse told me so) after the 2 aenestetic drops.

Contacts lenses/eye drops instead of injections
Hi there just thought just in case you don't know that much research is happening at the moment about how different methods can be used to give drugs that need to be absorbed in the eye such as lucentis, avasrin and
eylea
instead of using an injection .Research into using contact lenses and or eye drops

moving on to eylea next!
It's something called detached pigmented retinal epithelium - it means i have detached layers of the retina and fluid is trapped in there( i think ) , they can't operate as it's in the centre of my eye - So he is going to try injections with
eylea
and i'm really hoping that this will help.

Should there be an eye test before each injection?
I am due for my second
eylea
injection on Thursday. Should there be some sort of eye test before the injection is given? I have noticed that my VA went from 20/63 to 20/80 after the first injection, but has now come back to about 20/70, so in fact, it is still slightly worse than pre-injection.

Has anyone else experienced a double black disc?
I had my second
eylea
injection yesterday. And what a different experience this was from my first one! As so many of you had advised me to tell the clinic of the painful experience I had during the first injection the clinic took it onboard.

My third injection after delay with shingles!
Hi friends, luckily the shingles have cleared up and I just got my third
Eylea
injection today and guess what! This time the pain had been minimal and no horrible gritty feeling. I think there may be a little black blob lingering but really not nearly as bad. Next one in 2 months now.

Eylea

Wet Macular Degeneration
I rushed over to the Western Eye and had my first
Eylea
injection yesterday afternoon. Wow, I didnt know what to expect, its really scarey. I had a bad reaction probably because it was the first one. Im ok today but last night after the injections was very frightening.

Eylea Second Injection
I had a second
Eylea
injection a few days ago. It seems my vision has worsened whereas the first injection showed almost immediate improvement. Can anyone tell me if they have had a similar experience? Thanks, Assim

Vitamin supplements
The monthly
Eylea
injections have done wonders, far outstripping the consultant's expectations, and I'm now having them at 6 week intervals. My question is that, at the outset, my consultant advised taking Macushield Gold.

Injection update
The consultant confirmed wet AMD in both eyes and I am having
Eylea
. If only I could have this same doctor every time, it would be far less stressful. We have recently got back from a 3 week holiday and the hospital did arrange appointments to fit around our dates.

High myopia and the macular
, and in May this year I had a liquid leakage in the R, which was treated with 3 injections of
Eylea
, which has so far put things back to normal. What I find hard is that no one at the eye hospital can ever tell me what the future is for my eyes.
