Anyone had eye injections with a cataract
I don’t know if I should have cataract removed before starting injections in right eye. I have already had an injection in left eye but cataract was already removed. Will the shot be much more painful when having to deal with cataract. I am diagnosed with GA.
I have injections in one eye for wet macular degeneration. I have cataracts too. There has never been a suggestion that cataracts would make the shot more painful. My shots don't hurt at all. But we are all different, and this question is one for your doctor. Has the doctor discussed if and when he/she would like to remove the cataracts? Wendy, Patient Leader. I have cataracts in both eyes and receive both eylea and syfovre injections, currently 2 out of every three weeks. I have no problems with the injections.
thank you for commenting. You certainly have a commitment to deal with, having injections two out of three weeks. I hope they are holding your sight steady. Does your doctor ever comment about when they will want the cataracts removed? Wendy, Patient Leader.
