Basically the same

Detailed Answer:
Hello, I'm Dr. Branch,
Thanks for using 'Ask A Doctor' service.

Besivance and ofloxacin eye drops are both antibiotic eye drops, and both the same type of antibiotic, called a fluoroquinolone. Fluoroquinolones are good for covering a wide range of common bacteria, and these drops are often used for bacterial infections in the eye.

I hope that helps answer your question, please let me know if you have any other questions.
I'd be glad to discuss it further with you.
