Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic

I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I will be answering your question.

I reviewed your history.
The photo attached with the question shows infection of the eye.
I would like to treat this condition by the use of antibiotic eye drops like Moxifloxacin eye drops.
The use of decongestant eye drops like ocurest will help to provide symptomatic relief.

The condition should resolve over 3-5 days.
Please write back to me with the response to treatment and whether she is having symptoms like watering, discharge from the eyes.
