Hello
It seems from the history that you are having boil and you are prescribed with phexin and ARK AP for treatment.
Boil is because of infection of the glands of the eyelids. The treatment is by use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs. Phexin is a antibiotic and ARK AP is an anti-inflammatory drug, hence they are effective in treatment of the boil. Along with this antibiotic eye ointment can be used and applying hot compression will help in early resolution of symptoms.

Thank you
