    the reason I`m writing this review is not that I`m dissatisfied with my treatment but of side affects. The right eye I get the injections in has become very dry and scaley on the lid and the skin around the eye. Also my scalp and my neck are doing the same thing. Very itchy and irritating.

    I have had my fourth injection of Eylea after several yrs. of Avastin injections.....The doc indicated the Avastin was not working well and switched me to the Eylea-both eyes...Since last August 2013 my vision has deteriorated but I am unsure if it is caused by the Macular or Cataracts.....apparently it is difficult to determine...

    My mother just received her 3rd Eylea injection today and has been very nauseated after this injection. Said she her stomach was a little unsettled with the other 2 injections (which she never shared with me). Wondered if this is normal?
