I have cataract surgery on my right eye for a year, but my eye goes red at night time and experiencing slight soreness in the corner of my eye where the tear duct canal. Has anyone encounter same problem
Hi olivia0103, me too had the surgery (phaco+IOL) of my right eye on 19th September 2017. After discontinuation of post surgery medication
I) Vigamox Eye Drops:
(moxifloxacin hydrochloride ophthalmicsolution) 0.5% as base 5ml
II) Ophth-Dex Eye Drops:
(Dexamethasone)(USPSpecification) Sterile Ophthalmic Suspension 5 ml
Composition : Each ml contains Dexamethasone USP 1 mg
III) Santodex Eye Ointment :
(Tobramycin 0.3 %, Dexamethasone 0.1 %)-Ophthalmic Ointment Sterile
, occasionally felt stinging (gritting) in right eye especially at the innermost left corner just same as you described, which subsided occasionally but was not completely recovering. Also, felt sometimes pressure (stress) on right eyebrow. But both of these symptoms were mild and not severe but caused
uneasiness especially stinging. When I searched on forums like these on net, I came to know that these symptoms are side effects of antibiotic eye drops and will disappear slowly slowly and exactly that happened after about six months. But I am not sure that those symptoms are gone or I have become used to them. Anyways I am perfectly okay right now and thanks god for that. I hope and pray that same would be your case.
Thank you very much for your reply. At least am not the only one who experience this problem. And thank you for giving some info about what am feeling and give me some relief. At present my Doctor gave me Hyloforte lubricating eyedrops and FML (flurometholone) eyedrops
