Optigent eye drops are used to treat bacterial eye infections. They contain an antibiotic that kills the bacteria causing the infection and helps relieve redness, irritation, itching, and discharge resulting from the infection. They are used in cases such as conjunctivitis, blepharitis, and superficial corneal ulcers.
Optigent eye drops should be used according to the doctor's instructions in terms of the number of drops and the number of times per day. The eye should be kept clean during use and the tip of the bottle should not be touched directly to the eye to avoid contamination. Treatment should be continued for the period specified by the doctor, even if symptoms improve, to avoid the recurrence of the infection.
