That is right dose: You might get more relief with Benadryl (diphenhydramine). It may make you a little tired but it may be better with allergic reactions. I take it you have removed all the glue. See a doctor to make sure it hasn't effected your eye or your vision. There are topical eye drops the doctor might want you on.

Stop and see eye MD: Zylet is a steroid and antibiotic drop. Side effects include burning, stinging, hypersensitivity or allergy.  Blurry vision a rare side effect, this could be due to allergy or corneal changes but could also be due to an increase in eye pressure (from the steroid).  You should inform your doctor, stop the drop ; have an eye exam to check your eye pressure. Try using artificial tears in the meantime.
