Detailed Answer:
Hello, Thank you for posting your question on Health Care Magic.
The symptoms you are experiencing looks like conjunctivitis .
It could either be due to viral or bacterial infection.
Please continue the lubricating eye drops you are using .
In addition to that ciprofloxacin eye drops 2 drops thrice a day also help,if you don't have an allergy to ciprofloxacin.
Keep your eyes covered ,especially while going out.
Hope this helps
