Brief Answer:
conjunctivitis

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

More than half of bacterial conjunctivitis cases usually clear up within 10 days time. Antibiotic eye drops can speed up this process significantly. Fluorometholone and ciprofloxacin eye drops can be advised. If there is an allergic component involved then olopatadine eye drops can also be added. You may want to wash the eyes daily and frequently and avoid any dust exposure for the time being. Most likely the conjunctivitis will resolve.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
