Uses of Oxcin D Eye Drop

Eye specialists often prescribe Oxcin D Eye Drop after cataract and other eye operations to prevent infection and calm inflammation. It is also used for bacterial eye infections where inflammation is a significant problem. Because it contains a steroid, it should only be used for the time your doctor recommends and under follow-up.

How Oxcin D Eye Drop works

Moxifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that blocks enzymes bacteria need to copy their DNA, killing a wide range of bacteria. Dexamethasone is a strong corticosteroid that reduces swelling, redness and pain in the eye.

Contact your doctor straight away if you have increasing eye pain, worsening vision, persistent redness or discharge, or swelling of the face or eyelids.
