Steroid eye drops
I have been on antibiotic eye drop and ointment for my bacterial conjunctivitis only in left eye.it has been improved but some irritation and itching in left eyes remained so my doctor have prescribed me a combination of (steroid and antibiotic eye drop) that is KITMOX-LD for 10 days. I don't have any prblm in right eye.
So,should I use the kitmox-ld in both eyes as it is a steroid..Please advice??
Should I use the steroid eye drop in both eyes or only in left eye, any complications or anything?

Use the drops only in the left eye as prescribed and only for 10 days. You must visit your ophthalmologist to know the improvement in condition and for how long the drops must be continued as long term use of steroid drops can lead to side effects like glaucoma and cataract.
