I recently recovered from a strong viral infection / sinus whereby I was running temperature for about a week and had thick, smelly and bitter mucus discharge down my throat. I took levobact and alrite dc as advised by my physician and was okay within a couple of weeks.

However, now I have an eye infection in my left eye. My eye is bloodshot (really) and waters a lot. There is no pus or white discharge or any stickiness, except when I wake up my eyelids stick together.

I have been washing my eye with warm salt water and using Gatilox, FML Liquifilm nd of course Refresh tears four times a day, one drop in the left eye every time for the last 2 days and now the infection seems to have subsided a bit.

Should I continue using these, because I read elsewhere that FML should not be used when you have had a viral infection. Please advise.
