Dry eyes after eye ulcer, could it be antibiotics?
Hello! A few months ago I got an ulcer in one eye from contact lens use. The contact lens was found stuck to my eye, with a small white dot on the edge of my cornea.
Ever since the infection has healed, I’ve had eye pain, itchiness, some achy pains/difficulty concentrating on screens. I can’t wear contacts in that eye because they basically stick to it like seran wrap or bubble up.
I was prescribed a few different eye drops medications including an antibiotic - moxifloxacin and a steroid while I had my infection.
I’m curious as to if anyone had dry eye complications from an eye infection relating to antibiotics? Just trying to piece together what’s going on w/ my eye. Hoping it’s not permanent nerve damage.
