Will using steroid drops for corneal ulcer blur vision

[blgold]

I am approaching 4th week of treatment foe corneal ulcer... 2 weeks of antibiotic drops prescribed by optemologist, then Wills Eye Hosp. added steroid drops to the antibiotic drops.  Im on day 7 of steroid drops and have noticed blurred vision in the affected eye.  My question is, is this a normal part of the healing process?

is it possible to know how is your eyes after the treatment is completed , i m on 4th week of my ulcer and i still see blurred vision

There was only one post by this person in 2012 and I doubt you get a response. It's very hard to generalize about the treatment of corneal ulcers since there are so many things that cause them and they vary in severity and location. Good luck

Steroids are used to control inflammation.  I do not know if this is normal in your case.  See your doctor.
