Cataract Surgery, Suggested Drops But For Besivance Have Ocuflox, Prolensa Have Acular. Is It Right?
My mother in law just had cataracts surgery today... I am trying to figure out her eye drops... They are not the same names as what are on the sheet, but I think I have figured them out... For Besivance, I have Ocuflox? For Prolensa or Bromday, I have Acular. Would that be right? This makes no sense to not have the drops by the name that is on the schedule.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The brand name of molecule is not matter but generic name of the molecule should be same and the strength or concentration, should be same with prescribed drug so you just check it out if it is same then no need to worry, hope this may help you.
