Coti H Eye Ointment is used to treat bacterial eye infections. It is used for treating infectious conditions of the eyelids, the cornea (the transparent part that covers the front part of the eye), conjunctiva ( lines the inner surfaces of the eyelids), and anterior ocular segment(front of the eye). Bacterial eye infection occurs when harmful bacteria enter any part of the eyeball or surrounding tissues, including the cornea ( front surface of the eye) and lining of the outer eye and inner eyelids (conjunctiva). The common symptoms of eye infections are red eyes, pain, discharge, watery eyes, dry eyes, light Sensitivity, swollen eyes, itching, and blurred vision.
Coti H Eye Ointment is a combination of two antibiotics: Hydrocortisone and Chloramphenicol. Hydrocortisone is a steroid medicine that works by calming down the body's immune response to decrease itching, pain, and swelling (inflammation) of the eye. Chloramphenicol is bacteriostatic, which prevents bacteria's growth by inhibiting the production of essential proteins necessary for bacteria to grow, multiply, and increase in numbers. Together as a combined product, Coti H Eye Ointment prevents the spread of eye infections caused by a wide range of gram-negative bacteria causing eye infections.

Bacterial eye infections: Bacterial eye infections occur when harmful bacteria enter any part of the eyeball or surrounding tissues, including the cornea ( front surface of the eye) and lining of the outer eye and inner eyelids (conjunctiva). The common symptoms of eye infections are red eyes, pain, discharge, watery eyes, dry eyes, light sensitivity, swollen eyes, itching, and blurred vision. Anytime any person can face an eye infection, one should visit an eye doctor for an eye exam to identify the condition. Self-diagnosis can delay effective treatment and even cause permanent vision loss. Conjunctivitis, or pink eye, is a common, highly contagious bacterial eye infection that generally spreads in children in classrooms and similar environments. The transparent layer's inflammation (conjunctiva) lines the eyelid and covers the white part of the eyeball. It causes bacterial infection, thereby causing inflamed conjunctiva, making the white part of the eyeball look pink.
