Talk to the doctor about the Acular. Since you're taking Prednisilone acteate it doesn't make much sense to also be taking the Acular because both are anti-inflammatories, but the steroid is the stronger and doctor preferred choice except in some cases where it is contraidincative ie glaucoma patients.

What side effects are you having?

The first is a steroid antiinflammatory, the second is a non-steroidal antiinflammatory the last is an antibiotic.  All three are standard medications after RD surgery.
