After laser treatment for a torn retina, what kind of drops if any are required to put in that eye and for how long? I was told to use acular ls.

Usually one does not need any eye drops. Acular is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drop.

Thank you for your quick response. Is there any danger to these eye drops, (Acular LS) if it is used for one month twice a day)after laser ftreatment for a torn retina?
