Emergency Levofloxacin eye drops with prednisolone eye drops were started. 6 hrs after which Vancomycin 500mg injection was administered. The diagnosis was Endophthalmitis. On USG, it was shown that there is no retinal detachment. According to the Dr., the infection was responding to treatment. 10 days later, she was advised vitrectomy & 70% of fluid was removed. Inspite of this, vision hasn't improved. Again vancomycin & dexamethasone injections were given 10 days later.
2 weeks ago,this problem was aggravated(due to allergy) and so i consulted a doctor who prescribed me some eye drops(OLAPHAT) for 1 week and eye mist drops and he told it was due to allergic reaction,he never mentioned about any other disease like blepharitis.the blood vessels dilated was minimized to a small extent but i could not eliminate the one or two completely. i don't have itching,flakes in eyelashes,nor any pain,nor dry eyes.
The doctor said he could restart the dilating drops (cyclopentolate hydrochloride) and this has helped his pain spasms. However, whenever the drops wear off the pain spasms come back. Has anyone else experienced this? I have extensively searched the internet and can not find any other similar posts. His doctor had not heard of it. We are wondering if perhaps the buckle his impacting his muscle that is used for focusing? Or is this normal and it will just take awhile for the pain to stop?
My pupil has continued to be dilated in an irregular shape since that time. I am using 1% Pilocarpine Hydrochloride drops 3x/day. It is normal when I wake after putting the drops in before bedtime, but begins to enlarge shortly after waking. It remains down for about 4 hours following he use of the drops. Any suggestions as to cause or treatment?
The doctor said it could take up to 1 week for the pupil to stop dilating, but I have not noticed any gradual improvement. Yesterday he put in some pilocarpine drops and determined that my eye muscles were still working. He did say that if the pupil won't stop dilating he could go in and do a purse string suture to fix this. What are the complications and risks involved with this?
You have a serious problem that can cause permanent damage to the eye and in the worst case loss of eye. It may take longer than a week to clear up. use the medicine drops exactly as prescribed. Deal with the sensitivity to light with a hat and sunglasses. You can even get sun goggles like people wear after cataract surgery that block from the side and top. Ask the ophthalmologist about them tomorrow.
DO NOT WEAR YOUR OTHER CONTACT LENS.
eyedrops (Ophthalmic; Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride 0.1%; Naphazoline Nitrate 0.033%) My eyes became red like hell day after my last usage of the drops. They were itching and tearing like crazy for a couple of hours, the next day all came back to normal. Day after that, a strong sinus infection occured, but i dealt with it due to anti-biotics. I was healthy within two weeks, but since then I'm dealing with few vision problems.
I have an eye allergy that started several years ago, after I had pneumonia. My heating/air system at home and in the car irritates my eyes. When the air blows in my face it irritates the veins/blood vessel around my eyes, they get puff and swollen that causes the pressure in my eyes to go up. I'm using four different eye drops provided by my doctor. I only have close-up vision in my left eye and I'm worried that I may soon lose site in my right eye.
Similar problem. Seen by neuro-ophthalmologist. Anesthetic drops and dilation drops applied. Effects worsened as the hours increased after dilation. Disabling blurred vision and photosensitivity for six days, along with dull ache in R eye, feeling of fullness/pressure in R eye, which continues, somewhat abated on day 8. Had revisit today. L eye refraction significantly down. I was advised to use artificial tears. No anomalies other than both cataracts, (which are mild), seen on re-exam.
The eye was red and now it is gotten a lot better since the eye drops. I was given Cyclopentolate hydochloride to take at night to relax my eye muscle and also tobramycin and dexametjasame ophthalmic suspension. Honestly I'm just looking for hope on whether or not my eye will make a complete recovery. The pain is a lot less severe. Also if my eye is stuck like this, what options are there to try to correct it.
I recommend you to visit your doctor's clinic to get detailed information about how to take acular eye drops & its dosage. A specialist in eye caring will going to suggest you in better way.
I have been trying different eye drops for my dry eyes and the irritation. I am on prescription antibiotics as well but for inbetween. I have tried systane,thera tears,natural tears and my doc gave me optive which has perservatives and the others don't but tried them now. Does anyone find one brand better then others and is there issues with using the preservative ones? He said it was fine to use 4 times a day.
I have been using over the counter eye drops (namely, Opcon A) daily for a few years in order to combat my red eyes. With constant use, I have noticed that they do not work nearly as well anymore, and that my eyes are redder than ever. I read into the subject and have learned that with prolonged use, your eye becomes more dependent on the drops and does in fact become redder. Every morning I wake up with eyes that are extremely bloodshot red and uncomfortable.
