[QUOTE="Fruitella, post: 1616418, member: 357815"] Hi, sounds worse than it is. You will probably meet others who have had multiple injections - they seem keen to let you know how many (and their age)! You don't see anything apart from a few bubble like things in the second or so after. With mine, a nurse wipes around the area, then they put some drops including yellow ones and a gizmo to keep the eye open. All over very quickly. The bit I don't like is about 20 mins after you can get the taste of the various meds for a few seconds - usually on the bus home by this time. No real after effects, I just go home and sit for a bit if the sight is a bit fuzzy. Sometimes the eye may feel a teeny bit tender for a while but nothing really. PS I presume you do mean eye treatment ;). [/QUOTE]
