There are "bandage" soft lenses that medications can permeate. These can
maintain the integrity of the cornea and don't need to be changed between
visits.  They will also keep whatever steroid/antibiotic combination in
place longer without dripping out of the eye.  There are also pain meds like
Toradol drops which can be helpful and will stay under the lens.  That being
said, human ophthalmology might not be analogous to veterinary
practice........but you might want to ask.
I hope these ulcers heal soon for your sweet old guy.
