Post injection black spots
Hi
Had my first injection 5 weeks ago, all went well. About 3 weeks later after taking several flights I woke up with hundreds of black spots and a floaty cobweb in my eye. I have seen an optician and the eye doctor at hospital no detached retina. Anyone else experienced this weeks after the injection when I initially all was ok. Second injection was cancelled but due to happen next week, very apprehensive.
Hi
. Here is an article about the potential side effects of injections: https://maculardegeneration.net/anti-vegf. Three weeks seems like a long stretch for any of the listed reactions to occur though. Have you seen an ophthalmologist since it happened? Your symptoms sound similar to mine when I experienced vitreous detachment. Here is an article about vitreous detachment and macular degeneration treatment: https://maculardegeneration.net/living/floaters-after-injections. I hope you get input from others in the community and that you are able to safely and confidentally get your next injection. Keep us posted, if you don't mind. Warm wishes. - Lori (Team Member)
