Hi all:
I'm on day 5 of Restasis / lotemax 4x per day combo. My eyes are still red, sore, irritated and dry. I realized Restasis will take a while to work (hopefully) but shouldn't the Lotemax be kicking in by now? I'm starting to wonder if I'm one of the 15% who get a red eyed reaction to Lotemax. Also I've noticed that applying an icy washcloth (ice in plastic baggy covered with wet washcloth) soothes my eyes - it seems to do more for me than the warm washcloth/rice baggy application. Do you think this will be ok to do long term?
