Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that your mother is having eye pain with perlimbal injection.
This can be seen in acute inflammations of eye, acute glaucoma...
As of now she can take analgesic and antiinflammatory drugs and later you need to consult your ophthalmologist and depending on the examination findings treatment can be taken as required.

Thank you
