How many times are you using it now ? How many times when you started it ? Flurometholone eyedrops have to be strictly reduced according to the doctor's prescription. Although it is a very useful eyedrop, in some people, it can increase the pressure of the eye and has to be stopped and eye pressure checked.
Next Steps
Stop the Flurometholone eyedrops. Visit your ophthalmologist to check your eye pressure and your PRK recovery
Health Tips
Don't panic if your doctor is not open. Consult here again
