WET MD

by Chasity2000, Mar 17, 2008 11:51AM

I think I may be looking for someone to calm my nerves/fears. I was diagnosed with something like wet macular degeneration in my left eye 8 months ago. I got the avastin injection and see 20/25-20/30 sometimes out of that left eye. I live in fear of the right eye going as well.

Within the last few days I have noticed some blur with my eyes. When I look down to read it takes a while for me to come in focus. My grid looks good but the last few days I seem to think I notice the lines not being straight with my right eye. Its not everytime I look but sometimes. I wonder if it could be nerves or mayve just time to get my prescription updated. I go to see my macula doctor for my regualr follow up tomorrow but I am so nervous I thought you might just give me some helpful info and suggestions for what this fuzzyness could be.
