How can I remove wrinkles I got from Retin-A? I've used it on my eyes for about a week and the wrinkles are terrible.

I've used Retin-A for acne and it's helped out, so when I found out it could help with under eye wrinkles I used it. Moisturized, waited 15-20 minutes, then applied. 4 days out of one week. My wrinkles went from negligible to 70-year-old. I stopped it yesterday and went to my doctor: she prescribed steroids(topical and ingested). This looks terrible. My face is glowing but my eyes look 60-70. My eyes never exfoliated- they just wrinkled. What's the safest bet to get them back to normal?
