I second Allira's advice. I'm not a glaucoma patient but I do have first hand experience of post-cataract-op probs. Seek medical guidance - all good wishes x

Best phone the hospital or your GP.

It is not up to people on a social media site to give advice on
something like this.

Hope they can advise you.

I have had cataract surgery in one eye two weeks ago without problem. I am still taking my Glaucoma eye drops as the surgeon recommended. Everything was ok until about 3 days ago when the eye drops started to irritate the eye which had the cataract. The other eye is fine. Has anyone else had this problem and will it go away. I usually put the drops in just before I go to sleep and by the morning the irritation has gone. Thanks
