Eysuvis (loteprednol) "I suffer from dry eye disease flare-ups. Eysuvis was incredibly helpful in easing my discomfort. I only wish it could one day be used more frequently and not be suspended after the two-week guidance. Works better than any other treatments tried when my eyes seem more inflamed."

Eysuvis (loteprednol) "I began Dry Eye treatment 6 months ago. 4 rounds of IPL, genteal eye gel, Octase ointment, heated masks, Hydroeye, lid wash, and lid massage. I went back yesterday and my doctor told me the oil production and excretion looked good. However, one eye was still frequently irritated and dripping. There were valid reasons for it, but the bottom line, my eye needed a chance to calm down. He gave me a sample bottle of these drops and I was astounded at the difference. I feel like I have my life back. I really hope that at the end of two weeks, I can stop taking it and not have the symptoms return. It only took about 12 hours to start seeing a big difference after dealing with Dry Eye for the past 12 months."

Eysuvis (loteprednol) "My ophthalmologist in Ohio gave me a free sampler in case I experienced a serious flare-up. I held onto it, but didn't use it until I was truly desperate. I moved across the country. My new ophthalmologist gave me a sampler of Xiidra which I tried for only 2 days and experienced the worst dry eye symptoms of my life and lasted weeks after trying it! I went back to the new doctor who refused to give me anything to calm the inflammation. I then turned to the handy sampler (which had not yet expired) that the first doc gave me. It saved me from the terrible inflammation induced by the awful Xiidra. It stung the first day, but the second day was bliss. Oh yeah, I dumped the new doc!"

Eysuvis (loteprednol) "I have been really suffering with extreme dry eyes, especially my left eye, for several years. Nothing has helped for more than an hour or so. My eye doctor gave me this stuff last Friday when frustrated and at wit's end, I said I had enough and would look for another doctor. The first day the drops burned in my eyes, but that subsided. This is day 3 and my eyes feel great! I have not had a flare-up all day. I am trying down to one drop twice a day tomorrow. Fingers crossed this solves the problem."

Eysuvis (loteprednol) "The drug works, that's for sure. However, it is absolutely despicable that the cost for about half an ounce of liquid is over $500! Insurance covers some but not all of it. The blatant greed exhibited by the big pharma is appalling. It is widespread and on full display. This works only as long as you use it. If you stop using it, the dryness creeps back. So, you have to dish out a fortune ongoing. Thanks."

Eysuvis (loteprednol) "I have ocular rosacea and MGD with 60% gland loss. At the maximum dosage of 4 drops a day in each eye over a three-week period, this drop almost completely eliminated my lid wiper epitheliopathy and greatly improved my symptoms during the three-week period. It also only slightly raised my eye pressure in both eyes. Unfortunately after having to taper down to two drops a day after the three weeks my symptoms have completely returned. However the drop is advertised to be taken for dry eye flares in the short term and it worked very well in that regard at the highest dose. My one complaint is that the eye drop bottle itself is cheaply made and drops tend to quickly pour out sometimes as soon as you tip it into position above your eye wasting drops as a result. I put in a ton of drops daily and this bottle is the only one that I have this problem with."

"Have extreme dry eye. At times, I experience pain when touching my eye and inserting my sclera contact lenses. Within six or seven days of taking the medication, the pain disappears."
