How long does it take for steroid drops to work (for eyes)?!
Question: How long does it take for steroid drops to work (for eyes)?
I have Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis (GPC)...so I have bumps under my eyelids and the eye doctor said it was moderate to severe. I've been wearing my glasses for one week and then I went to the eye doctor and they gave me one a day drops, but changed me to steroid drops early Tuesday. She told me to use them 4 times a day for 5 days (up until Sautrday), then 2 times a day for 2 days, then once a day for 2 days. So I'm starting on my 3rd day of these drops and my eyes are still COMPLETELY dry and I feel like it's not helping..how long does it normally take to work?? Or what's going on here?

You are just starting the 3rd day of a 7 day treatment.
Have patience...it doesn't work overnight miracles.
You can start to wonder if there is no change by the end of the 5th day.
