Effects of Prednisone on Eyes

I no longer am taking prednisone and now only have stiffness if I sit too long. But what surprised me was my yearly eye exam with the optometrist. I see her for prescription glasses only and she said my eyes really have significantly worsened in both near and far vision. Last year there was no change at all. When I saw the ophthalmologist, she mentioned my pressure was higher and she attributed it to the prednisone. Hopefully now that have stopped using the steroids, pressure will go down. Am now seeing her twice a year.

Have your eyes been affected by prednisone? Have you had any other negative side effects?
