Treatment

Each injection is given with a very fine needle through the white part of the eyeball. This procedure is usually carried out as an outpatient visit. You may experience some discomfort during and after the injection, bruising of the white of the eye, an increase in the eye pressure and moving black dots in your vision. You must not drive home after this procedure as your vision will be blurred.
