For Plantar Fasciitis Giving Burning Pain In My Left Heel,

For plantar fasciitis giving burning pain in my left heel, my podiatrist injected dexamethasone acetate. Soon thereafter, my ophthalmologist decreased my prednisolone dosage to 1 drop, each eye, daily; latter was to prevent rejection following DMEK, both eyes, 11, 12/17 with cataract removal and IOL implantation. Insurance limitation forced me to seek another ophthalmologist. 1 wk. ago, both IO pressures were 18; Dr. Vergara advised to halt all drops but Systane(R). Q.: Is another heel injection safe for m y eyes?
