Dry to Wet in One Eye

My one eye has gone from dry to wet. I'm happy because now I'm getting an Eylea shot. And already, after 2 shots 6 weeks apart, I'm seeing better! My sister has been getting Eylea shots in both eyes for at least 2, maybe 3 years, and it's improving her MD and eyesight. So I always wanted to get the shots.

Problems with seeing color and contrast

My problem is not blurriness, but colors detection. The inside of my car is black and I can't see any of the knobs. I've been thinking of seeing if trading in my car for one with a light interior would help. When I go shopping I can't distinguish between dark colors, especially if the store is not lit well. There are stores I can't go into anymore because they are lit so poorly. This is a biggest problem for me.

Advice on coping?

Anyone have any hints on how to cope with this? I have flashlights all over my house and one in my car with a magnifier attached.
