    I have had six weeks' treatment with this drug following cataract surgery. Thankfully my surgical center recommended to keep it in the refrigerator to reduce the stinging.

    I had a severe reaction to Pred Forte. Swelling of face and throat. Choking, blurred vision, burning on way down. Was not told to hold corner of eye so it wouldn't go down throat.

    Prescribed after cataract surgery-get awful taste in mouth that can't get rid of! Even coffee tastes bad! Gives me a migraine like (not as bad) headache & nauseated from it..? Makes vision blurry. Even makes my 'other' eye hurt & feel swelled..? I don't like this medicine at all! There must be a better treatment...?

    prescribed following PRK vision correction surgery. OD says that it will slow healing but reduces risk of vision regression following surgery.
