Finally went to see opthamologist yesterday after eye was swollen shut and got prescribed a steroid dose pack and wishin 12 hours eye was 25% better. Today...75% better! So glad I did this bc the opthamologist said the swelling was putting pressure on my eye which can affect your vision!!

Great review?

My right eye still has a lump on lower lid so he is going to do a steroid injection next week. Hope that will do the trick.
