AND THEY JUST GIVE ME DROPS WHICH DO NOT HELP... I HAVE COPD, I TAKE PREDINSON, ADVAIR, AND SPIRIVA COULD ONE OF THESE BE THE REASON.?? THE DRS. SAY NO.. I PUT HOT COMPRESSES ON THEM WHICH IS SOOTHING, BUT NO HELP... ANY ADVISE ON GETTING RID OF THIS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.. THANK YOU PAULA

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is because of the viral infection then better to avoid the steroid and just clean the eye with saline water, if this does not comes around then you need to see the eye surgeon do not take any chance, hope this information helps, take care
