Wet Macular Degeneration: What treatment helps you?

Yes I only had one injection of Eylea and within 6 hours my eye went 75% darker and my vision was so blurry for 4 weeks. I went from 20/20 to 20/40 in that eye 5 weeks after the injection and I cannot get the inflammation to go away in 5 months now. I did go back to Avastin and It does not help as before the Eylea.

If you had this severe reaction within 6 hours of injection, it seems the problem could have been the injection and not the new drug. The other possibility is that your capillaries leaked before the injected medication took effect, but that seems unlikely. I would seek the opinion of a different retinal specialist. I hope this information helps.
