Hearing about an injection in the eye can sound intimidating, but in reality, anti-VEGF injections are quick, relatively painless, and highly effective in treating several sight-threatening conditions. These injections are commonly used to manage diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, and retinal vein occlusions. At The Eye Center, Dr. Mahnaz Naveed Shah & Associates Karachi, we prioritize patient comfort and care, ensuring that the procedure is as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Does the Injection Hurt?
Numbing the Eye
Before administering the anti-VEGF injection, the eye is carefully numbed with anesthetic drops. This ensures that you do not feel pain during the procedure. While you may experience mild pressure or a slight sensation, discomfort is minimal.
Quick and Precise Procedure
The actual injection takes only a few seconds. Using a very fine needle, the medication is delivered into the eye with precision. The quick nature of the procedure further reduces any discomfort.
After the Injection
Some patients may feel slight irritation or notice a scratchy sensation after the injection, but this usually resolves within a few hours. Our team provides detailed aftercare instructions to help you feel comfortable and recover quickly.
