Conjunctivitis
How much long Conjunctivitis lasts with treatment?
My wife has been having it for the last 7 days and medication started 3 days ago. No such relief is found yet, even after using medicines for 3 days.
Medicines are carboxymethly cellulose 6 times a day, moxifloxacin 3 times a day, flouro methelon 3 times a day and moxifloxacin hydrochloride ointment 3 times a day.

The drops given are mainly antibiotics which may not really help in viral conjunctivitis
A change of eyedrops and ointment would be better.
I'd advise getting an online or offline consultation for better understanding and treatment of the problem.
