Optometrist vs. ophthalmologist?

To add to my discussion about optometrist vs ophthalmologist... I didn't notice any vision problem beforehand until after my appointment and all the drops, etc. It's been 10 days since and my vision has seemingly gotten worse. Is it possible that the all the drops could have exacerbated additional problems?

There are currently NO FDA-approved eye drops for any stage of Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD).
So these "drops "you were prescribed are not AMD related. Were they prescribed for further eye problems like dry eyes for instance?
