Brief Answer:
Retinal detachment needs an immediate correction.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Madam.

I can certainly understand your concern.

Yes, the medicines are correct, please take them so as to prevent any infection.

Retinal detachment needs an immediate surgical correction.

Likewise, its important to start antibiotics like Cipro at the earliest to prevent eye infection.

It's relatively very safe to consult your physician directly, instead of his/her assistant and the pharmacist to decide on the right antibiotic.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
