Hello,

Ofloxacin eye drops can be used in the eye. Please make sure they are eye drops and not ear drops.
As for the eye pain, the presence of pain in the eye is an indication that a visit with the doctor is needed. It is best to have your eyes examined and other important causes of eye pain are ruled out first.

So, I would advise you to set an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible and have your eyes checked first.

I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.
