Overview Zobra Eye Ointment

Opticlear Antibiotic Ointment combats bacterial eye infections such as conjunctivitis and blepharitis, and helps prevent post-surgical or injury-related infections. Its antibacterial action eradicates the infection. Administer this medication strictly as directed by your physician. Allow at least five minutes before applying other eye treatments. Consistent use at regular intervals is crucial; complete the prescribed course, even with symptom improvement, to avoid relapse. Opticlear is ineffective against non-bacterial infections (viral, for example) and should only be used under medical supervision. Overuse of antibiotics diminishes their future efficacy. Minor temporary side effects may include stinging, burning, itching, and redness. Report persistent symptoms or worsening conditions to your doctor. Transient blurred vision may occur initially; avoid driving immediately after application. Refrain from wearing contact lenses during treatment and while the infection persists.
