Break Synechia:
Reduce Inflammation:
Elevated IOP:
CME:: P: sun protection (hat, sunglasses) C:
Cycloplegic (Cyclopentolate 1-2%)
BS: Phenylephrine 2.5-10%
Inflamm: Pred Forte 1% or Loteprednol 0.5% (No less than q2h to start, then taper) Durazol- as
effective as pred at half the dose
IOP: Combigan/ Cosopt
(avoid prostaglandins & pilocarpine) CME:
topical NSAID
10. What is inhibited by corticosteroids:
What is inhibited by NSAIDS:: -Phospholipase A2
