What to do if i have dry eye and irritated ear how and when i use betametason dtop ?

Dry eye is treated : Differently from other issues such as ear inflammation. Usually lubricating eye drops are first line therapy for dry eyes. The Betamethasone for your ear issue should be used as prescribed. Steroids for the eye though needs to be monitored closely for potential side effects by your ophthalmologist.
