Can Drops To Treat Glaucoma Cause Blurred Vision Which Goes By Blinking Or Is It An Infection?
I have been blinking to try and get clear vision in my left eye, but there is a slight film sensation and then it passes until I blink again. It's like when you clear your eyes in the morning when you get up, but this problem persists.
Is it an infection or something I need treatment for immediately. I recently had a full eye exam and the only thing I have is Glaucoma and I am taking drops each day for it. I drop in each eye in the evening. Reaction to the drug maybe?

Hi,
This is most likely to be a simple infection. I suggest you irrigate your eye with sterile saline 4 times a day. if this does not improve the situation, you should see your doctor for topical antibiotic eye drops.
