Silicone bubble in my eye
Last March, when I received my injection for Macular Degeneration, I got a large silicone bubble in that eye. It impacted my vision and I was extremely sensitive to light. The bubble is smaller and it has floated down a bit so it isn’t an annoying as before. In September I saw a new retinologist who said that the bubble will remain in my eye for the rest of my life since it remained so long and didn’t float down or to the back of my eye.
My question is…Is that normal? Does this happen to other people? Was my doctor at fault?
I now get specially ordered silicone free injections.

Have you heard if anyone had the bubble remain in their vision for over 10 months. The doctors say that it will never go away if it hasn’t moved to the back of my eye yet. That is my issue, this bubble that is affecting my vision.
Surgery is too invasive and can lead to many other problems. It is not recommended.
Thank you
