    Description
    The 88-year-old man had an Avastin injection (compounded by Avella) OD for AMD 8 days prior to this photo. He immediately complained of floaters after the injection which persisted 8 days later. The Optos photo, taken 8 days after the injection, shows a large silicone oil bubble about 1DD in size above the ST arcade and more than a dozen smaller 0.1DD bubbles over the macula suspended in the vitreous gel.
