Will you be able to drive yourself home after your first eye injection?

Most people can return to their normal activities immediately after receiving an eye injection. However, you may experience some temporary side effects that could affect your ability to drive safely.

Common side effects that typically last only a day or two include:
* Foggy or blurry vision
* Eye soreness or irritation
* A harmless spot of blood on the white of your eye

Given that foggy vision is a possible side effect, it's generally safer to arrange for someone to drive you home after your first injection. This way, you can see how your eyes respond to the treatment without putting yourself or others at risk on the road.

Once you know how your eyes react to the injections, you can discuss with your eye doctor whether it's safe for you to drive yourself to future appointments.
