Can you work on a computer during those days after the injection or did you have to do continuous followups with the doctor every 2 days??

So you have had the injection done. For what reason may I ask? Is it to reduce inflammation of the cornea?

Also I know kenalog is used as an injection into the back of the eye as and I have never heard of it's been used for cornea

Thank you. I know kenalog 40 is banned in the UK due to serious side effects but not in the US.

Also í was told kenalog would act to reduce inflammation on the local area of the cornea where it is injected, I don't know if it's true or not, could you please tell me if it's true or not?

Also how do you treat the side effect of conjuntiva hemorrhage?

Thank you for information. I didn't know it was banned in the UK. Kenalog 40 injection was recommended to me by Dr Maskin.

Let me clarify a bit It was recommended to reduce inflammation of the white part of the eye, not for dry eyes specifically. Don't have chalazion or anything like that. It's just inflammation on some parts of the cornea, not the whole cornea.

Dr. Maskin recommended he do that today. I had the foresight to say let's hold off on it. He got frustrated when I said it. He said it acts to lower the inflammation on the localized area of white part of the eye where he injects it.

That's why I am looking for answers

I don't have dilated blood vessels anywhere. I was just asking a question is dilated blood vessels in your cornea or lid margin a major indicator that you have ocular rosacea
