Pain in eye after cataract surgery

2018-07-15 17:14:28
I have undergone a cataract surgery 1 and half months ago for the left eye. After the post operation, i have used eye drops as advised by the doctor for 1 month. As long as i used the eye drops, there is no pain in the eye. The moment i stopped the medicine, I'm suffering from pain in the eye. So I continued the medicine for another 15 days. When i stopped using the medicine, irritation and pain persists. Can you please suggest a solution for this problem.
