Increased ocular pressures are known side effects from nasal and oral inhalation use of steroids.

A spacer may help also with this problem, as you want the steroid to be inhaled and not deposited on the mouth membranes.

Do remember to rinse and gargle after you use the inhaler and spit out the residue. That will help too.
