I was prescribed Pred Forte 1% Opth Susp 15ml for my eye inflammation after a minor injury, and I'm curious about others' experiences with this medication. It's designed to reduce swelling, redness, and irritation, but I'm afraid of the potential side effects, especially the urgent ones like changes in eyesight or severe irritation. Has anyone else had to deal with these issues? How can you tell if it's just a minor irritation or something more serious? I’m also wondering how quickly people saw improvement in their symptoms. Any tips on how to manage any side effects that might come up? I’ve read that burning or stinging can be common, so I’m prepared for that, but what about other potential issues? Does anyone know if there's a way to minimize the risk of these side effects, or should I just be prepared for the worst? Also how do you know if it's really working or if you need to talk to your doctor about other options? Thanks everyone!
