I have an appointment today with my ophthalmologist who is treating my uveitis (eye inflammation).
So far she's been treating me with steroid drops but after reading a lot of your posts (and after my eyes have gotten a bit worse in the past few days), I was thinking of asking her if I should also be using antibiotic eye drops.
Especially because I'm only on 200mg of Doxycycline per day and I've heard at least 400-500mg is needed to breach the blood barrier and reach my eyes.
So, I was wondering what the names are of the antibiotic eye drops you all have taken and how well they have worked for you.
Thanks so much!

I used drops, don't remember the name, recommended by a LL eye doc without any problems.
