8 hours ago I had an avastin injection in my eye for Amd. The eye is still watering even though I am using refresh optive eye drops. Plus runny nose and congestion. I ve had these injections before without these side effects lasting so long. Is this normal ?
Injection is not related to watering. It is epiphora. It appears like there is blockage in nasolacrimal duct. Punctal dilation and syringing have to be done. It is to be repeated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
