In Diabetes and hypertension, there is blood and fluid collection in and around retina which need time to resolve. Many of the times more than 1 injection is needed if BP is not well control or otherwise.
I'm sure your doctor would have done retina investigations before and after injection which I need to see!
Next Steps
get a follow up or a consultation with reports!
