My dog scratched her eye and was prescribed apo-diclofenac ophthalmic (anti inflamatory) and sandoz tobramycin (antibiotic). Which one should be given 10 minutes before the other? I forgot my vets instructions....

You can use apo-diclofenac first then wait at least 10 minutes before applying the other medication. They are both drops (not ointment) so even if you have given them the other way round (tobramycin first), absorption and efficacy is fine.
