General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hi,
Your eye problem is due to the highlighting of your hairs. It's an allergic action. Not likely to respond to ciprofloxacin (an antibacterial agent).
You should continue with steroid drops &can accompany it with Cetirizine (a. anti-allergic medicine). You need to co tinie it till the allergic effect of the highlighting agent goes.
Can consult an eye doctor/physician for expert advise.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
