Is Anti Vegf Injection Treatment Safe?

I have been diagnosed of Myopic CNVM in left eye. Though the vision is fine 6/6 but the sysmptoms are Distortion of Vision. Right now I am under treatment with Anti VEGF injection (Lucentis). I also see a transparent membrane (I can see through it) in the central vision. I wish to know the extent of recovery with this treatment and subsequent probability of reamission of it again subsequent to the treatment. I have immense problem in working on the laptop. Can this will improve with treatment. Regards Sachin

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having myopic chorodial neovascular membrane. This requires treatment by the use of anti vascular endothelial growth factors to prevent complications like chorodial hemorrhage.
Hence you are on right treatment hence do continue the treatment.
The problem of difficulty in working with laptop is not related to this problem and it can be because of dryness of eyes and it requires use of artificial tears eye drops.

Thank you
