Dry Eye Disease
"I was asked to use these drops one month before cataract surgery.  After 10 days or less (not sure of exact timeframe) I wanted take my eyeball out of my eye socket.  I was in a lot of pain in that eye and wanted to just keep my eye shut.  I called my eye doctor to let them know I could not use this eye drop and explained my symptoms to an assistant.  She told me to use hot compresses and to use another eye drop prior to surgery.  I told her I must be allergic to this eye drop.  She did not agree.  I did not use any more eye drops until 7 days prior to surgery."
