Hello
It seems from the history that you are having glaucoma for which you are on treatment by timolol and alphagam.
Prednisolone is known to cause glaucoma hence it should be better avoided ad using prednisolone may worsen hour intraocular pressure reduction.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor who has prescribed prrdnisolone and do discuss with him for prescriotion of alternative drug to prednisolone.
Thank you
