Infection in left eye. been prescribed lotepred t drops. its been 5 days and my irritation n redness hasn got any better. should i continue?

Need consult: The medication you are taking has a steroid in it. If your eye infection is not improved in 5 days you need to be seen immediately. Continued use of steroid drops in an eye infection can lead to complications. Make an appt as soon as possible. Good luck.
