Did the doctor tell you to stop the prednisone? Why would you stop it after 8 days, just to restart it?
Prednisone is a drug with a lot of side effects. It can cause anything from weight gain to making you feel like you're insane.
Tell your doctor and let him work it out with you. You should never stop prednisone w/out consulting your doc first. If you were started on Prednisone, I'm assuming there was a pretty serious reason for it.

Have been prescribed Prednisone before when having allergic reaction to poison ivy/shumac, so bad my eye was swollen shut. Something is not quite logical about your question. If blurriness is a side effect, the doctor should be told. Otherwise, steroids are really nothing to mess with and can cause worse than blurred vision. Heart attack comes to mind. The answer is not specifically aimed at you. It is for anyone that reads it.

kate, it's not right for you to abruptly stop the use of steroids. your body might suffer from adrenal crisis. see the physician and ask if you can still continue the medication.
goodluck
