it appears the infection is resistant to tobramycin doxycycline. or it may be viral. first go for change like ofloxacilin .3%drop 4times daily. take combiflam tablet after food for twice daily. systemic antibiotic like ezythrocin 5oo mg for 3days can be taken. observe for result. if no improvement then consulteyedoctor.
