For Macular Degeneration "I was terrified at the prospect of an eye injection. But I found it totally painless and quick. The only downside was blurred vision for about 20 hours. I got it done in Dublin. More people need to write their positive experiences, I see so many awful reviews. I will never fear going for my injections ever again."

For Macular Degeneration "Recently, I had an Eylea injection on the 4th of December 2020. My vision has not improved, but my ophthalmologist told me that the fluid has gone. The problem which I'm facing is really making me anxious and agitated. There is an emergence of floaters in my eye, although my doctor says that the retina and the macula are fine, but still, the eye floaters are in my entire visual field. Sometimes they go away, but most of the time, they are there and cause curtains on the top and bottom of my eye. Vision is blurry, and the eye floaters obstruct my vision, and I can't see clearly."

For Macular Edema Following Retinal Vein Occlusion "It has helped me. My vision is not 100%, but it is doing its job. I would like to keep my vision. Side effects I get are sensitivity to light, pressure, mild headache. But before my appointment, I get sensitivity to light, some blurred vision, sometimes migraine headaches. But again, as soon as I get my injection, after a few days, my vision is good, not 100%, but good."

For Diabetic Retinopathy "I was given two injections of Avastin in my left eye, with some improvement. My doctor decided to try Eylea. After my first injection 6 days ago, I still have mild pain, blood in the white where injected, blurred vision. The first 24 hours, my eye was quite painful and tearing like crazy and very sensitive to light. I am not sure I will take it again, especially if the blurry vision does not improve. My vision prior to injection was that I had black lines/floaters that would move through my vision, but it was not blurry. This is very concerning. Just FYI that none of my injections hurt until the numbing agent wore off."
