It is used for the treatment of external bacterial eye infections caused by germs sensitive to chlortetracycline, such as hordeolum, conjunctivitis, and blepharitis (inflammation of the eyelids).

In severe eye infections, ophthalmic application should be complemented with the systemic administration of a suitable antibiotic.
