Hi ,It can take even 1 week to cure completely provided if you are taking correct instruction like how many times to apply the drops , and what drops your applying also matters , self medication is prohibited
Next Steps
1.)Please consult an ophthalmologist if you have not visited even once again
2.) If you have already visited once then reconfirm or go for the follow up with same ophthalmologist.
