Eylea left me with permanent floaters... HELP
I received Avastin shots for the first 7 months with no complications or lasting floaters, then 3 months with
Lucentis
, then my RS experimented with Eylea on the 11th month and now I have a permanent floater that looks like an opaque blurry jellyfish in my vision.

Hopefully no more injections 😃
After a short time I started receiving
lucentis
injections. I dreaded these as always had such bad after effects. I would be climbing the walls with pain all night after, we tried omitting iodine but made no difference.

Fragmin and Eyelea
I will be injected with Fragmin and also take daily aspirin - I’m due to have my first of 3 Eyelea injections on April 29th and had my last unsuccessful
Lucentis
jab in November. I’m wondering if this is safe?

Double vision and 3D vision with wet AMD
Any thoughts, insights about these questions would be sincerely appreciated, along with any info regarding transition to
Lucentis
. Hoping this finds each of you being gifted with healing, if not curing. Riverpipes

Possibility of discontinuing Lucentis injections
I was diagnosed with wet AMD in my left eye 2 years ago, since then I’ve been receiving regular (4/5/6) weekly injections and scans. This morning I had a sight test and scan at the eye clinic and was told that my eye sight had got worse. The doctor explained that it was marginal that I would be able

Severe headache and pain after lucentis injections?
I rang the
lucentis
team in our area and the nurse told me to buy some viscal eyes and apply to both eyes liberally and take painkillers and if it is no better in 24 hours to ring them again. We are currently sat in the dark and my husband cannot open his eyes at all.

Hi everyone...I am 26 years old and last year was diagnosed with myopic CNV and PIC in my left eye...
I’ve just had my 6th
Lucentis
injection. I am going back to see the doctor next week to discuss immunosuppressant treatment. I would be keen to know anyone’s experience from taking these?

End Stage wet AMD
I have had Eyelea and Avastin and
Lucentis
. Currently on
Lucentis
and my vision was 20/25 2 weeks ago. I developed wet AMD in my right eye a year ago. I agreed to participate in a clinical trial for either
Lucentis
or Avastin.

No injection again
Just under a year ago I was changed from
Lucentis
to Eylea. Since then I have been having appointments every 2 months. When I went for my appointment in November I was told that my eyes had stabilised and so I didn’t need injections then.

Chalazion after injection - how long should we leave it after shot before using hot compresses?
Hi guys, I had my
lucentis
shot last Tuesday (and a very scratchy shot it was too - my worst in two years). I have a repeated chalazion that comes up on the lid of that eye, and it's in the process of flaring now.

Laser treatment
So today I had another
lucentis
injection, pictures and finally saw my dr. The scans showed no leaking and sight test was good, I have brvo. He said I can go 8 weeks between injections now but then said he wants me to have laser treatment as a preventative measure for the future.

Gardening after injection?
I was told ages ago to avoid gardening for few days after my
Lucentis
shot - but have never seen that in any official patient literature. Has anyone else had this instruction passed on? Keen to get those crocus bulbs in...had my most recent injection four days ago on Thursday.

Wet AMD - problem with Eylea?
Following 2 years of
Lucentis
, I was advised to change to Eylea . After 3 injections of Eylea, visual distortion has progressively increased . Faces are unclear and distorted on TV. Written words have become very difficult with wavy lines, moving and missing letters.

Eye pain 3 days after Lucentis
So had my injection on Thursday pm and felt pain on leaving hospital but used to some discomfort. Felt sore and gritty so have been using hypromellose eye drops. Gritty feeling has gone but still feeling sore today, no redness though. Just called on call ophthalmologist who said I may have been scratched
