Hay fever - struggling with eyes

Today my eyes have been so sore and puffy. Been taking Fexofenadine 180mg, Oloapatadine 1mg eye drops twice daily and Hylo Forte eye drops. All prescribed by GP with first and third on repeat prescriptions

My eyes are so sore raw feeling. I’m struggling get eyes to be open and stay open. They are just slits when they are open.

My eyes are sensitive and ultra sensitive since having eye surgery on both of them for a visual condition.

Had cold compresses over eyes, got air purifier on in bedroom and still my eyes are really bad

@hellogood the issue with GPs prescribing steroids for the eyes is that they don't have the machinery to check the pressure and you could be one of those people who responds negatively to steroids which puts you at risk of glaucomatous optic nerve damage due to increased IOP.

@justasking111 are you the OP have you name changed?
What was the original condition you had your eyes operated on for?

Malignant glaucoma. No I'm not the OP
