Steroids and Cataracts
Posted: Mon Oct 31, 2011 3:28 am
Hi, has anyone had this side effect of steroids?
I'm 45 and just had cataract surgery on my right eye last Thursday and will have the left one this Thursday. My opthamologist said it was a very specific type of cataract caused by oral and injected steroids. Over the last 4 years I've had more steroid injections than I can count for PNE and pelvic pain. I never knew that there would be so many side effects and definitely was never told about them.
