Post Operative Care:

Begin topical Prednisolone four times and Ocuflox three times a day for 4 weeks. Epithelialization will be completed in 2 to 3 weeks. If the surrounding conjunctiva is not inflamed, stop Ocuflox and taper off PF on a weekly schedule from four times a day. If, however, the surrounding conjunctiva is inflamed, give subconjunctival injection of 0.1 cc Kenalog (40 mg/ml) per site in the office. Symptoms related to CCh will be quickly resolved. The residual symptoms due to aqueous tear deficiency, meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), or excessive blinking can be managed accordingly.
