Gatilox eye drops are an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections of the eye. They work to relieve the symptoms of infection by stopping the growth of the microorganisms that cause it. Gatilox eye drops are usually prescribed to treat conditions such as bacterial conjunctivitis, which is an inflammation of the clear layer that covers the white of the eye and the inner eyelids.
Gatilox eye drops may also sometimes be used to prevent bacterial infections after eye surgery as part of a preventive treatment plan.
