Introduction
CIPVISION KEYPROFEN OFLA is a prescription ophthalmic solution containing Ketorolac Tromethamine & Ofloxacin Ophthalmic Solution. This dual-action eye drop combines the anti-inflammatory properties of Ketorolac Tromethamine, a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID), with the broad-spectrum antibacterial action of Ofloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic. Together, these ingredients help treat bacterial eye infections while reducing associated pain, redness, swelling, irritation, and inflammation.
Eye infections are common and may occur due to bacteria, eye injuries, surgery, contact lens misuse, or poor eye hygiene. Symptoms such as redness, pain, watery eyes, discharge, burning, itching, blurred vision, and swelling can significantly affect daily activities. If left untreated, bacterial eye infections may lead to serious complications and vision problems.
CIPVISION KEYPROFEN OFLA provides comprehensive treatment by eliminating infection-causing bacteria while simultaneously relieving inflammation and discomfort. It is frequently prescribed following eye surgery, for bacterial conjunctivitis, and for other bacterial eye conditions where inflammation accompanies infection.
