Diclofenac ophthalmic Compared to Alternatives

For Postoperative Ocular Inflammation: I really don't know the effectiveness but I do know this medicine causes me severe burning sometimes lasting for hours at a reduced level. Although the doctor said this does happen and isn't something to be concerned about I have my doubts. I have been using it for 2 weeks 3 times per day and have a week to go.

For Postoperative Ocular Inflammation: After completing 4 weeks of treatment, as prescribed, my eye became irritated i.e pain/discomfort, redness and sensitivity to light. I was told to repeat it for 4 more weeks. I've been on it now for 4 months with the same results. Stop it, and soon eye irritation begins again. And I'm back to using it again. Doesn't seem right, especially when one should not use it for long periods Doesn't seem to be working. I too agree that it stings when instilled and I also taste it.

For Postoperative Ocular Inflammation: This medication caused headaches and painful eye pressure behind my eyes. It also felt as if I had foreign bodies in my eye. Due to the great discomfort I experienced, I began reading several sites regarding this medication. I find that this medication has many concerning negative side effects.

For Uveitis: My wifes eye trouble began over 5 yrs ago...after 2 specialists basically telling her nothing was wrong the 3rd one informed her of her anterior uveitis. Pupil crazy shaped, severe pain, severe pressure and very light sensitive. Ketorelac, Durezol, and another! Using for almost 5 yrs and iris has been stuck to lens entire time never releasing! Recently removed 2 and tried Combigan and Durezol together! On day 1 pain was the worst its been out of all this time..today (3rd day) she woke, I asked about her pain and her reply "the best its felt since this happened"! I checked it and for the 1st time in 5 yrs her pupil was actually round again and reacts to light...just left doc and the blockage (stuck iris) was 50% released!

For Uveitis: I'm not sure if durezol did any good. I do know that the ophthalmologist, gallemore, kept me on it for 18 months, without monitoring my IOP, resulting in optic nerve damage in both eyes--blindness in one eye and extreme visual deficits in the other. My IOP was 60/63.
