bacterial eye infection

Hi guys;
I was with my friends and talking to some random people which one of them spit in my eye, unintentionally during our speech. The day after that, i woke up having yellow discharge from my eye, i visited my doctor and she gave me Gentamicin sulfate ointment 0.3% Ophthalmic. I used it for 10 days up to now, at the beginning, it worked very well, but know, I have the infection back, specially in the mornings when I wake up. what do u guys think that I should do?

tnx

See an ophthalmologist or optometrist.  Might not be an infection.  Or could be a viral infection that antibiotics don't kill.
