About Q-Sap Eye Ointment 5 gm
Q-Sap Eye Ointment 5 gm is used to treat bacterial eye infections. It is used for treating infectious conditions of the eyelids, the cornea (the transparent part that covers the front part of the eye), conjunctiva ( lines the inner surfaces of the eyelids), and anterior ocular segment(front of the eye). Bacterial eye infection occurs when harmful bacteria enter any part of the eyeball or surrounding tissues, including the cornea ( front surface of the eye) and lining of the outer eye and inner eyelids (conjunctiva). The common symptoms of eye infections are red eyes, pain, discharge, watery eyes, dry eyes, light Sensitivity, swollen eyes, itching, and blurred vision.
