Hi..
Thanks for choosing HCM..
Ketoflox eye drops can cause some burning sensation when you instil them in your eye. But you need not stop them just for that. They help in reducing the redness and inflammation. In addition with your doctor's suggestion you can use some artificial tear drops.
Warm compresses will also help to reduce the swelling..
Hope I answered your query. Take care...
