Depends on how the eye heals, but in most cases these drops are continued anywhere from 2-4 weeks, depending on the surgery and how the eye looks at the post-operative exams- you surgeon should guide you as to the frequency and duration of therapy-
No everyone uses prednisone but when used it is generally from two to six weeks.
