Eytob Eye Drop 0.30% contains Tobramycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic used for the treatment of bacterial eye infections. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria in the eye, helping to relieve infection-related symptoms such as redness, discharge, irritation, and swelling. It is commonly prescribed for conjunctivitis and other superficial ocular infections caused by susceptible bacteria.
