That’s a good way to compare.lid It helps your dryness. If it does, you could ask him for some for the other eye.

A lot of doctors start with steroids for dry eye. My cornea specialist in Asheville , that I can’t see anytime soon, does that. So I currently get my steroid supply from him when I use up one of the old bottles. Just to have one on hand.

Since I’ve already had cataract surgery There is no risk of steroids creating another. The only risk is glaucoma and as long as I get my eye pressures checked, that won’t be an issue. I’ve never had lotemax raised my pressures one bit. It’s a very safe steroid. As they go. What brand did you get prescribed?

“What brand did you get prescribed?”

Fluoromethol. “Fluorometholone is used to treat eye conditions caused by inflammation (swelling). This medicine is a corticosteroid (steroid medicine) that helps reduce the swelling in the eye.”

generic for FML Liquiflm.

I don’t think it is going to help. I don’t have swelling. There is something causing an irritation.

I just put some in and I feel the irritation still.
