Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Is there any pus stained discharge, especially in the morning on waking up? Is your vision normal? How much is the pain? Start Moxifloxacin eye drop six times a day for seven days. FML (Fluorometholone) eye drops three times a day for seven days. Ocupol eye ointment (Polymyxin B, Chloramphenicol) at bedtime for five days. Refresh tears eye drop one hourly for seven days.

Patient's Query

Thank you doctor,

There is no pain, only itchiness, and crusting of eyelashes. How do I get the Moxifloxacin eye drops?

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

It is conjunctivitis. Crusting means it is bacterial. I am unable to provide you an international prescription, but if you go to an emergency room, they will give you Moxifloxacin only. But other drops are also important.
