Hello
It seems from the history that you are having swelling of eyes with blurring of vision.
Prescort is a steroid eye drops and it shouldbe avoided in infective conditions. Since you seem to have infection it is better to avoid it. You can use antibiotic eye drops and antiinflammatory drugs for symptomatic relief as of now and depending on the examination finding you can start specific treatment after consultation with your doctor.
Thank you
