What is a severe treatment option for eye inflammation?

  1. Ketorolac (Acular)

  2. Cold compress

  3. Prednisolone (Pred Forte, Omnipred, Pred Mild)

  4. Brimonidine (Lumify)

The correct answer is: Prednisolone (Pred Forte, Omnipred, Pred Mild)

Prednisolone (Pred Forte, Omnipred, Pred Mild) is a corticosteroid medication that is used to treat severe eye inflammation. It is considered a more potent and aggressive treatment option compared to the other choices. Ketorolac (Acular) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that can help with pain and inflammation in the eye, but it is not as strong as prednisolone. A cold compress can provide temporary relief from inflammation and discomfort, but it is not a long-term or severe treatment option. Brimonidine (Lumify) is a medication that is used to temporarily reduce redness in the eye, but it does not treat inflammation. Therefore, it is not a severe treatment option for eye inflammation. So, the correct answer is C.
