Re: Watery eyes and red eyelids-Herceptin?

My wife has red eyes irritation and uneasiness. She was using eye drops to reduce the redness.During her last herceptin the redness became very prominent. The chemo nurse stopped the infusion and called my wife's Onc and the duty optholmogist. They prescriped an eye drop to reduce the irritation and also some antibiotic eye drops.But as soon as the infusion was stopped the redness got reduced by the time the duty optho reached my wife and the duty optho was not very pleased with the chemo nurse
