Ophthalmic Drug Toxicity

Ophthalmic drug toxicity occurs when eye medications cause harmful side effects or damage to eye tissues. This can happen if the medication is too strong, applied incorrectly, or used for too long. Symptoms might include redness, pain, blurred vision, or swelling. It is important to follow prescribed instructions and inform your eye care provider if side effects occur. Proper use minimizes risks, and prompt attention to adverse effects helps prevent serious eye damage.
