Antibiotic eye drops are medications used to treat bacterial infections in the eyes. They work by delivering antibiotics directly to the affected area, helping to eliminate harmful bacteria and reduce inflammation. Common conditions treated with these drops include conjunctivitis and corneal ulcers. These eye drops are typically prescribed by a healthcare professional and should be used as directed. It's important to complete the full course of treatment, even if symptoms improve, to ensure the infection is fully cleared. Side effects may include temporary stinging or burning upon application.
