I've Been Recently Diagnosed With "wet" Macular Degeneration, And The

I've been recently diagnosed with "wet" macular degeneration, and the retina specialist asked if Ive taken any steroids. I took them in December for my back and also Flonase for sinus issues. She did a thorough exam and wants me to return the end of April for a recheck. She said she may have to put an injection in my eye. I'm considering going to Cleveland Clinic for a second opinion. I'm very concerned and don't want to lose my vision. Also, I have age related macular degeneration "dry" in the other eye. What do you suggest? Could this have come from taking steroids? Could there be any other reasons? Thank you.
