Recurrent conjunctivitis
I have been having recurrent attacks of conjunctivitis, starting more than a month back, when I was prescribed Moxicip by doctor for a week. The symptoms were right eye redness, watery discharge, and at times eyes glued in the morning. After this treatment, the symptoms reappeared after 2 weeks when I had a place change...Recovered in 2-3 days by just putting teat drops, but again happened after a week when I came back from visting a different place
