Overview Obra 0.3% Eye Ointment

This antibiotic eye ointment, Obra 0.3%, effectively combats bacterial infections affecting the eyes (such as conjunctivitis) and eyelids (including blepharitis). It also helps prevent post-injury or post-surgical infections. Obra 0.3% halts bacterial growth, thus resolving the infection. Adhere strictly to your physician's application instructions. Allow at least five minutes before applying other eye medications. Use consistently at prescribed intervals. Complete the entire treatment course, even with improvement; premature cessation may cause relapse or exacerbation. Obra 0.3% is ineffective against non-bacterial eye infections (viral, for instance) and requires a doctor's prescription. Overuse diminishes future antibiotic efficacy. Minor, temporary side effects may include irritation, burning, itching, and redness. Consult your doctor if these persist or your condition deteriorates. Initial use may cause brief blurred vision; avoid driving immediately afterward. Refrain from wearing contact lenses during treatment and while the infection persists.

Tilt your head, instill one drop, and keep your eyes closed for 2–3 minutes with your head down, avoiding blinks or squints. Gently press the inner corner of your eye for a minute to prevent drainage. Allow 5 minutes between multiple drops. Wait at least 10 minutes before using other prescribed eye drops.
Contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen during treatment or persist after completing the prescribed course.
