Best Answer

Eye infection is taken here as conjunctivitis, the most common of eye infections. You do not use penicillin locally like eye drops or ointment. This may favour the development of penicillin allergy, which can become a serious event later on.

Eye drops are great to heal pink eye, but you will need a doctor's prescription. Some drugs to cure them are Gentamycin, Tobramycin, Polytrim, Sulfonamides; these are old medicines. Ciloxan, Vigamox, Ocuflex, and Quixin, are newer medicines, and although they work faster, they do not fight bacteria well.

the penicillin needs to be dropped into the infected eye. I also rub they outside with what runs out. After a couple days you will see it clearing up. It will take about 5 days to go away.
