My dog's eye infection is getting worse after vet drops, what now?

Question

My ten month old lab is having some serious eye issues. We took her to the vet on Thursday and we're told it was a bacterial infection. We were given eye drops called neomycin and polymyxin b sulfates and gramicidin ophthalmic solution usp. But now two days later her eye seems to be getting worse and the redness has spread. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 10 months and 28 days old | 47 lbs

It's a little too soon to get to the conclusion that the diagnosis is not correct but if you do not see any improvement until Monday i strongly recommend taking Arya to the vet again in order to have it rechecked, possibly under sedation this time as in some cases a foreign body could be hiding deep under the third eyelid causing these symptoms.
