I know they can accelerate the growth of cataracts.
Thanks for the link to the NIH article. Cataract is not associated with IOP. I used intranasal steroids as little as possible.

The point was if someone uses current generation nasal sprays (Nasacort, Flonase, Nasonex) there is no concern about the acceleration of cataract growth. This is because the bioavailability is very low (<1%).
