Answer 1

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

You have sub conjunctival hemorrhage. This is benign condition and resolves without treatment in two weeks. Stop Ceflox D (Ciprofloxacin). Consult local ophthalmologist if problem persists.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.

Answer 2

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Sub conjunctival hemorrhage is a self resolving condition. You can use lubricating eyedrop like Carboxy methyl cellulose three times daily if there is irritation else no eyedrop needed. This must resolve in two weeks. Having said that it is provisional diagnosis. Kindly consult local ophthalmologist if problem persists.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
