To apply Ocuflox Opthalmic or Oflaxacin wash your hands thoroughly both before and after applying the drops.

Drop the correct number of drops into the space made by pulling down your lower lid. Slowly and gently close your eye and place your index finger over the inner corner of your eye and apply light pressure for 1 to 2 minutes to prevent the fluid from draining down the tear duct.
