My husband was diagnosed with eye cancer , has received two treatments of laser which last treatment 3 weeks ago we were told a lot of liquid is in his eye coming from the tumour !! Tumour hasn’t starting to grow as yet which is positive , concerned about this liquid , anyone else experienced this 

thank you 

  • Hi.

    It isn't unusual for there to be a fluid build up associated with a tumour.

    One direct treatment has settled down it is possible the consultant may look to other treatments to reduce the fluid level. I believe this is the sort of thing anti VEGF injections aim to achieve.

    Good luck to your other half.

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
