Izervay injections for dry AMD
I received 2 Izervay injections this year and my vision got very blurry. I am very upset after reading the trial about 10 % had that happen. I stopped the injection and went back to Syfovre shots which I had last year and no problems. Anybody had that happen. My vision got really bad. Thanks for any answers
I am so sorry you had that happen with Izervay. I recently had my 2nd Izervay injection. So far I have had no problems. Did the blurring clear up on Syfovre? Regards, Sharon Moore patient leader My vision stayed bad
My doc is shocked too. We went back to Syfovre since I had no problems with those shots. I am really very upset wished I never switched @sharon moore@Brown Eyed Girl thank you for ur reply. Just watch your eyesight careful. I felt different after 1st. shot. should have stopped right away. Well I have to deal with this now. Better luck to you thank you for the words of caution. I appreciate you sharing your experience with us. Keep us posted with any changes. Warmly, Sharon Moore patient leader
I had a similar incidence with a Syfovre injection. I had my second injection in February and experienced an immediate fogginess that did not subside. I returned to my retina specialist two weeks following my last injection and he could not explain my sudden loss in vision, other than my disease was advancing. My vision has gone from 20/30 to 20/70 since my last injection. I have decided to hold off on getting future injections for the time being.
the same has happened to me with the injections of Syfovre. I have had 4 injections in left eye & 2 in the right. I felt unsure of myself, so when I had the last shots last month the right eye started taking a turn for the worst. ( which was my best eye). She told me last month that I was going to lose the center vision in both of my eyes. She wants to continue with the Syfovre shots until October, then try the Iversay. I just don't know what to do. I have gone from dry AMD to GA. I just don't what to do.😪 
- ANYTIME you feel uncomfortable with a doctor or their diagnosis, it’s a red flag and a sign that a second opinion might be warranted. It can’t hurt and is worth it to feel more confident about your treatment. YOU are the expert of your body and if something doesn’t feel right, it might be a sign to question the suggested treatment. There’s a lot they don’t know about these newer drugs. Take care of yourself & ALWAYS advocate for yourself. Linda Hoopes, Team Member
@Brown Eyed Girl ]Sorry to hear about problems with Syfovre as well. I stopped all injections for now. My vision is very blurry and my eyes tear constantly I will see an eye doc for dry eye tomorrow if there is anything that can be done. Will keep you informed
