Yes, eye pain like this should be taken seriously, especially with AMD. Pain, swelling, or a "feverish" feeling in the eyeball are not typical day-to-day AMD symptoms and could signal something that needs prompt attention.

If you've recently had an eye injection, these could be warning signs of a serious complication called endophthalmitis (an eye infection). Symptoms to watch for include:

- Eye pain that continues or gets worse
- Blurry vision
- Redness in the eye
- Pus or discharge
- Swollen eyelids Please contact your eye doctor right away or go to an emergency eye clinic today — don't wait on this one. The sooner it's checked out, the better the outcome is likely to be.

This is one of those moments where acting fast really matters. 🙏
