Refrigerated Eye Drops

I grew a tolerance to the eye drop I was using.  The pressure was slowly rising in my eye.  So the eye doctor switched me to a different drop.  This one goes in at night and came refrigerated.  The pharmacist told me to keep it refrigerated.  So I have. 
The old drop was a morning drop and I kept it by the coffee maker.  Then every morning when I made coffee I would use the drops.  I don't have a night time routine that includes the refrigerator.  So the little woman took on the job of being my reminder and she is pretty good.
Today was the six week check up to see if the new drops are working.  I'm pleased to say that they are.  My pressure dropped by five points.  And the doctor was very happy.  I commented about the cold drops and he told me I did not need to refrigerate the drops once they were opened. 
I think I will though as it is now part of our nighttime routine and the little woman feels important being the reminder.
