[QUOTE="bellapodus, post: 1833205, member: 16277"] Interesting reading people's opinions. I am having an opposite feeling towards anti-VEGF. I had one round of lasers in my right eye which did the trick in 2016. However, I moved to Spain shortly afterwards. I have had 2 rounds of anti-VEGF in both eyes with disastrous affects in my left eye. Both times were excruciating with the injection and with blood in my eye (lasted up to 10 days after) plus felt like someone had punched me for a week after. I am now left with a permanent feeling of a dull headache on my left eye and I refuse to go for my 3rd injection next week. I have no improvement and have felt unwell ever since (occasional dizziness and difficulty with sleeping). No one listened to me about the pain when I had the 2nd injection and was told it was in my mind. Has anyone else had a reaction to the injection? [/QUOTE]
