Hello Manas Ranjan.
Welcome to Healthcare magic.
You have been through a lot, since you have almost taken all types of eye medications, antibiotic to antiviral to steroid.But did you ask for a definitive diagnosis from your ophthalmologist?
Blepharitis is inflamed eyelids and the cause whether viral or allergic or bacterial should be found out before treatment. The blurred vision could be a temporary side effect of the medications but if excessive then kindly consult an ophthalmologist for evaluation..
Also get your blood sugar tested as sometimes recurrent infections are a marker of diabetes.
Thank you

hello,
You are having viral keratitis and sometime it takes time to get resolved around 4-5 months ,just have patience ,have confidence in your eye doctor,usually steroids drop and lubricating drop will resolve this keratitis but it takes long time,after keratitis obviously there will be scar over cornea .YOU ARE having squint also once your keratitis is resolved then after sometime you can go for squint surgery.
Really sometime viral keratitis is very frustrating for doctor and patient and sometimes we have to change so many drops.
If you are not satisfied you can have second opinion with cornea specialist.
take care
