Q

21 mon. left eye conjunctivitis w/ d/c. Normal examination. 36h after cipro exam the same. Next step?

A

Refer to ophtho.

  • if pt doesn’t respond to warm compress + topical ABX x 1-2d= ophtho referral.

Note: fucidic acid= steroid should be prescribed by non ophtho b/c high risk for severe complication.
