[QUOTE="Unbeliever, post: 409125, member: 30851"] hi Tracey and keith. Don't worry about he avastin injecions Tracey. Nothing to them. they use a very small needle and as your eye will already have been anaethesised with drps you won't feel a thing. its also a clear fluid so won't have any after efects. it doesn;t work fo r everyone so hope you are one of the lucky ones. i had several steroid injections which did work but caused glaucoma so I won;t be having any more.. all of these treatmenys and surgery cause cataracts o grow and o grow more quickly so hey are not really a seperate issue. I have had caaracts removed from boh eyes -one purely to make it easier for them to examine the retina. Again these are usually very simple and successful procedures so don;t worry too much. I know how worrying it all is but at leas hey have these treatmets. the alernative us far worse, ood luck to you both. Hope all goes well. [/QUOTE]
