Thanks for the update. I read your shingles thread again last night with great interest and was wondering how you were doing with the eye issue.
The outbreak is on my face and around my eye...
I'm currently taking the prednisolone drops every other day, (in conjunction with 'regular' drops that I take daily, or whenever I think of them).....this is down from when I was taking them daily, but back up from when the doctor thought that every second or third day might suffice. (It's a persistent condition.)
Dr. has advised me that this problem can hang on 'indefinitely', and (perhaps as CYA input* has advised me to "Seek medical assistance immediately, (and/or increase the frequency of the drops), if there's a flareup when we're away".) (*Or perhaps it merely reinforces the seriousness of the situation.)
There's no pain/discomfort in the eye, and my vision doesn't appear to be noticeably impaired, but it's still there, and it's still threatening the eye.
