Brief Answer:
You can use Ofloxacin eye drops.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the query.

You can use Oflaxacin or Levofloxacin eye drops, two drops in each eye, every two hours for first 2 days followed by 6 times a day for 5 days. (Do not use these if you are allergic to quinolones, contact your PCP)

But I am not sure if you can buy this over the counter in your country, that information is not available, please check with your pharmacist or consult your local primary care physician.

Wishing you speedy recovery.

Regards
