Hi, I developed viral conjunctivitis around a week back because of which my doc has said there seems to be two lesions in my lower cornea and suggested ocupol ointment to be applied twice a day. Please advise whether this is a serious condition and whether the lesions will heal soon. Any advise will be much appreciated. Thanks!
