ABOUT 10% OF PATIENTS WILL GET INCREASED IOP AFTER 1 MONTH OF CONTINUED TREATMENT INTERMITTENT TREATMENT IS BEST TO AVOID IOP PROBLEMS. PATIENTS BEING TREATED NEED TO HAVE IOP CHECKED EVERY MONTH ALWAYS INDICATE THE TIME DURATION FOR TREATMENT ON YOUR PRESCRIPTION INDICATE ON THE MEDICAL RECORD THAT PATIENT HAS BEEN TOLD OF IOP COMPLICATIONS. PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR STEROID TREATMENT COST COMFORT LOW INCIDENCE OF IOP RISE DURATION OF TREATMENT LOTEPREDNOL MODIFICATION OF THE SIDE CHAIN ON THE STEROID RING FROM A KETONE TO AN ESTER REDUCES THE IOP INCREASE RATE TO ABOUT 2% OCULAR SURFACE WORKUP SUMMARY DIAGNOSIS TREATMENT NUTRITIONAL SUPPORT FOR OCULAR SURFACE DISORDERS When to treat and when to refer Most patients respond well to the lower level of treatments described in this talk Close follow up is essential Make sure patients understand what they have and how long the treatment is to be in play. Some patients need to be told they will be using meds for a long time Failure to respond or patient low satisfaction is a good reason to refer Patients tend to be satisfied whether treated by the original doctor or a referral doctor Thank you to John Affeldt MD Dry Eye and Ocular Surface Disorders by Stephen Pflugfelder Pharm Company Illustrations Ocular Surgery News LLU Eye Dept Resources THE GREAT HEALER
