Its got a lot better now, stings a bit but hoping tomorrow its better. They found fluid in my eye (DME) which I have no idea how its forming. I don't have any leaky blood vessels. My HBA1C is normal and I am in remission so not sure how BG is causing it. Its a scan and see in 4 weeks time. Im...

Thanks, I think its starting to clear up a bit. I hope I start seeing improvements .

Hi Sorry if this is not the right place to post the message. I had my first Eylea injection today and its all a new experience. Its been a couple of hours and my vision in the eye that was treated is what I would call misty and blurred. How long does this last? Should I worry? Some advice...
