Dexamethasone ophthalmic "I was in a coma for 3 weeks. When I eventually got home, I woke up on the 3rd morning to total blindness in my left and only partial sight in the other. After invasive investigation, it was decided that it was a very rare fungal infection probably caused by a central line. I had the majority of the infection removed, but it left me with cataracts. During the course of all this, I have been applying Maxidex, 2 drops every morning along with other eye drops. I think it has helped a lot. I continue to apply it and am due to have the cataract removed in November. That means I'll be able to see by Christmas, all being well. I have the original surgeon to thank for my sight. He had been in the business 35 years and had never seen the kind of infection."

Dexamethasone ophthalmic "I had pterygium removed from both eyes, and I got a sinus infection two weeks after surgery. After lots of sneezing after administering eye drops, I was told to use them for six weeks. After another two weeks, I have sinus issues again, which has now developed into a chesty cough as well. Has anyone else experienced this?"
