WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT?

Following retina and cataract surgery i attended for follow-up appointment and was prescibed drops to taken 4 times per day,which i did for one month as directed, 8 days after i developed imflamation in same eye,then prescibed  mydrilate drops (twice per day) and pred forte drops (4timesper day) for one week. Ater one week i attended for another follow-up appointment,after examination the consultant said everything ok,stop taking drops which i did that was 2 days ago.

Perhaps, and also very frustrating. After all, one wasts to focus on the rest of life, rather than having problems with eyes, which are so scary.

Good luck.

Why don't you call the doctor's office and ask them what you should do.
