I've read some good things on this board about azithromycin. Just about a month ago I had an appointment with a new eye doc, who started me on a 6-week course of Azasite. I understand from others on this board that this medication can cause eye redness during the course of treatment.
It's always hard to say exactly what causes eye redness with constantly changing weather and other variables we cannot always be aware of, but I am having, as expected, increased eye redness. However, I am now noticing what looks like a light sheen of redness on the underside of one eye in particular. It isn't a bright sheen, but it is new.
Does anyone know if this is likely because of the treatment? And by increased eye redness, have those of you who have used azithromycin noticed increased inflammation as well? It almost seems as if after I use the drops a night, lately my eyes seem a little clearer...but overall, every day, even Lumify cannot clear my eyes up for more than 5-10 minutes.
Thank you!!
