Brief Answer:

Need some further details regarding.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Kindly let me know a few more details so that I can guide you further:

-Is the peri-orbital edema present on one side or over both the eyes?

-Is there any redness/skin discoloration of the area?

-Any history of head-injury/trauma to the eyes?

-Any other associated problems?

-Have you developed the blurring of vision only after this edema or was it present earlier also?

-Could you please upload a picture of the affected area so that I review it in more details? You can simply upload/attach the picture to the Reports section of this web page...

Since you've visited the doctor already, and presently taking Prednisone and Augmentin, perhaps it's related to some kind of infectious aetiology and/ allergic response (please share the details regarding).

Hope I have answered your query.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Arnab Banerjee, Critical Care Specialist
