How does this medication work?

Zentobf Eye Drop is a blend of two drugs which are Tobramycin and Fluorometholone. Tobramycin is an antibiotic medication which obstructs bacterial development in the eye by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Fluorometholone is a steroidal drug which inhibits the production of prostaglandins that make the eye red, swollen and itchy.
