Do Prolensa, Xiidra And Durezol Cause Slow Healing After A Cataract Surgery?
I’m on plavix and have recently had 3-4 months orders for various steroids plus. Had cataract surgery with complications late Nov. this called for a second surgical intervention the next day. (Left part of the debris in). My list includes prolensa, pared acetate, Xiidra , ivero, durezol,ofloxacin,alevro. Problems: slow healing, dry eye symptoms, pain. I’m wondering if any of the drugs are causing increased bleeding time... or other interactions.

Steroid eye drops sometimes cause delayed wound healing following surgery. All other drugs are safe and doesn't do any harm to your eyes. You can consult an ophthalmologist and regarding the use of steroid drops in this health situation.
