Suggest Treatment For Eye Pain After Using Prednisolone Solution

I accidently got to many drops of Prednisolone Acetate Ophthalmic Suspension in my eye yesterday morning. I have had eye pain ever since, no headache, but vision slightly blurred. Will this resolve of its own accord? I had a cataract removed May 15th and all had been going to good. Thank You. Lois Smith
