For Macular Degeneration "I have been getting Eylea injections for about 18 months, the right eye cleared up immediately, but it took months to clear up the left eye. They are both dry now, and the doctor extended injection time to every 3 months, however, now the dry macular degeneration has gotten worse with distorted vision. Can't read with the left eye. The doctor wants to increase injections to every month in the left eye, but I'm afraid this could increase the progression of the dry macular degeneration. Has this happened to anyone else?"

For Macular Degeneration "I have had Lucentis in my right eye for 4 years. Then, I was switched to Eylea. I have had 1 shot in each eye of Eylea so far. I am experiencing headaches, and my vision is a little worse. I am praying the Eylea side effects stop, and my eyes improve."

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."
