A member asked:
What is the amount of time it takes to cure a giant papillary conjunctivitis (gpc)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Much time: It takes a long time for your conjunctival lining to develop this hyperallergic response and an equally long time to eliminate it. You will be asked to stop your contact lenses, change your cleaning agents and use topical steroids for a while. It can take several months.
