I was on Pred Forte for 7 months. Had dilated pupil, blurred vision, high blood pressure, normal blood suger went sky high, acne on face chest scalp and back, abnormal sweating... the pressure in my eye was at 50. During this time my other eye blurred and dilated a few times.I told my Dr that I could feel the drops going down my throat, I used them 4 times/day
Can a over dose of Pred Forte, cause any effect in the eye not treated?

Hi,
An overdose of this medication is unlikely to occur. If you do suspect an overdose, call an emergency room or poison control center near you. If the drops have been ingested, call an emergency center for advice.
Report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
Get a second opinion.-
Take care,.
