I am using tobramycin eye drops , but i still can't sleep. my eyes burn when i close my eye lids. what can i use to ease the pain and get some sleep.

OTC Systane Gel: 1st...If you have been on tobramycin for over 2 weeks you may be developing toxicity or allergy to it. Discuss this with your doc. Nighttime gel or even refresh pm eye ointment can be very soothing for irritation.
