Luckily, my cornea's have had enough time since using the last round of steroid eye drops that I should be able to use them for the next 6 weeks or so, until the humira kicks in. The optometrist I work for will look at my eyes weekly to make sure the pressure isn't going up and my cornea's aren't melting down-the two problems I've had before. If they do, it'll be very high doses of oral steroids or iv infusions. I'm to hit my eyes hard with the steroids for a few days than taper to hopefully a once a day maintenance.

Hopefully, once I start the humira the end of the month, that will reduce the inflammation and calm the eyes down. I'm STARVNG but otherwise feeling improved-not well but improved! I'm only seeing 20/40 right now so excuse the errors!!
