[QUOTE="domoboy, post: 2342299, member: 533931"] [USER=52527]@Dark Horse[/USER] Yes it's a very odd one. He said he didn't see evidence of new vessel growth which is a positive as the initial screening showed that, however I do have a bleed behind both eyes which may be obscuring it, so rather than jump into laser he wanted a FFA to make sure no new growth was hiding behind the bleed. He then still mentioned something about moderate to severe retinopathy. I've done the amsler test since at home, and whilst I see no issues with my left eye, with my right I can sport two very clear blurry/blind patches on my right eye. Since noticing them, I can't stop! It's very near the centre which from what I've seen sounds like maculopathy? I've read that laser/injections can make the maculopathy worse for a few weeks for recovery but then most notice improvement. Is this improvement compared to just after the procedure, or improvement compared to what it was before the laser/injection/s? Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
