Loteprednol ophthalmic "This medication works reasonably well for me. I'm stage 5 CKD, not on dialysis, and the itching has finally gotten into my eyes. I use this only as needed and that seems to be 1-2 times per week at this point. It's not a cure-all, but it definitely helps to a great extent."

Loteprednol ophthalmic for Dry Eye Disease "It has helped to produce more tears. Doctor finally decided I was allergic to Cequa after 6 months of irritation and no good results. I was using Systane drops several times daily and ointment at bedtime with heat mask following cataract surgery. Hopefully, I will get more help with Eysuvis. Eysuvis has a horrible bottle design. At times, drops fall out when just turning the bottle up to put drops in. Could get some help from the manufacturer of Systane with bottle design. I am not the only one complaining about the bottle."

Loteprednol ophthalmic "I felt immediate comfort after using this. Although my body seems to be adjusting to this, as I have persistent photophobia, it started positively. This is a revolutionary change I have ever had. However, it still requires more time to see the overall effects. I had been struggling with dry eye issues and thought there was less recovery I could expect."

Loteprednol ophthalmic "I had an allergic reaction to pink eye antibiotic eye drop, so my eye doctor gave me this Lotemax SM as a sample and put some in my eye around 5 pm. Not long after, I felt pressure relief and the itching sensation, like something was in my eye, was gone. I woke up the next morning and my eye was not crusted shut. I noticed there is no generic, and the cost is very high with hardly any health coverage that pays for this medicine. Only downside:"
