I was tested with e. coli when i did a test of eye swap at a clinic, they said am sensitive to cefuroxime and nitrofurantoin & it's affecting my sight?

Culture: 21 year old gentleman with infection involving the eye affecting vision. You need to see a specialist in Ophthalmology immediately. It sounds like you are describing the results of a culture and sensitivities, where they check what antibiotic the infection is susceptible to, and what pathogens grow in culture media. You need immediate treatment to protect your vision. UTI symptoms also? Good luck.
