Cataract Eye Drops
It is critical to take eye drops - consisting of antibiotics and anti-inflammation medications, before and following your cataract surgery. Without these medications infection and swelling can harm your outcome.
​
We have two different choices for patients to purchase and use drops.
Combination All in One Drop
You can purchase this bottle directly from our office at $39/bottle. It contains three different medications all bottled together for convenience. It is priced less than what is typical for insurance costs.
Instructions: Starting two days before your surgery, give yourself one drop of the Combo bottle three times every day for a total of three weeks. That's it. Simple, inexpensive and convenient
Separate Antibiotic and Steroid Drops
We order, through your pharmacy, two separate generic medication eyedrops: an antibiotic and steroid. You are responsible for the standard copays .
Instructions: Starting two days before your surgery, give yourself one drop of each bottle three times a day. Wait two minutes between bottles. After a week, stop the antibiotic. Continue the steroid drop for another two weeks.
