Zymar Eye Ointment (Gatifloxacin 0.3%) is a prescription antibiotic used to treat bacterial eye infections such as conjunctivitis. It should not be used without medical supervision.

Only an ophthalmologist can determine the correct dosage and treatment duration based on a proper examination.

This mild puffiness is likely due to irritation from wearing contact lenses overnight. Give your eyes a break from lenses for a few days, use cold compresses, and apply lubricating (artificial tear) eye drops to soothe the area. Maintain proper lens hygiene, and if swelling, pain, or redness develops, consult an eye doctor for further evaluation.
