using Prednison 50 mg for 5 days for allergic reaction and glaucoma

I developed a severe  allergic reaction to something I was taking I was taking. The doctor put me on Prednison 50 mg for 5 days. I have glaucoma and I just had surgery on my left eye a couple of months ago. How safe is for me to do this for this short duration.

50 mgms for 5 days is not a very large dose and not likely to have an effect on your glaucoma or its surgery.
