Diagnosed with CSR

I have been diagnosed with Central Serous Retinopathy. Its four months since the problem. I have done my OCT which shows the fluid buildup. After three months of CSR, my vision was 20/50. A doctor prescribed me Nevanac 0.1 eye drop. I used it for only three days (on prescription of doctor) and it has reduced to 20/200 or so. Is this the side effect of medicine? Can it be reversed? I don't feel any pain in eye after using the eye drop. I have stopped using the medication. But, my vision is gradually declining. Should I wait for another two months or start treatment? My vision is very blurry but there are no spots.

Since nothing works every time there is no preferred treatment. Yes Avastin has been used in small studies with encouraging results this is a reference  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3729398/

Will I be able to get my vision back assuming there is no scarring and fluid clears as it has been only four months. Can AVASTIN injection be considered as alternative to laser treatment.

No report to the surgeon you vision is worse and got much worse after using that drop. If its that bad you may need laser treatment.
