Sorry

I'm genuinely interested in the answer to the predisolone question. There has been some conflicting medical advice in the past. The underlying causes are well understood, and should not be cause for eyebrow raising.

Cavortingcheetah. Thanks.

The underlying cause is non of the things you describe, and only one eye is affected. The person concerned simply wishes to determine whether any short term change in visual acuity due solely to predisolone is sufficient to prevent a return to work. As you will probably know pred forte produces rapid results, but cannot be stopped quickly.

The person involved is not 'yet' required to wear spectacles.

Internet searches have not really thrown up anything terribly useful.

Very many thanks.
