While a vet may prescribe amoxycillin (Clavamox) for an eye infection, it is unlikely; amoxycillin is usually a suspension that contains things that are not good for eyes, and administered by mouth it is unlikely to get to the eyes. Your vet will likely be able to prescribe eye drops that contain an antibiotic that is safe for your cat's eyes.

How much penicillin should you give your cat for an eye infection?
You don't want to give your cat penicillin. If the cat has a puncture wound, it will become or already has become an abscess. That is where the wound does not heal properly from the inside out and closes over with the infection trapped inside. Take your cat into a Veterinarian to have it checked out. Normally they will clean out the abscess and put a penrose drain in it so it can continue to drain out the infection & then heal properly from the inside to the outside. The Vet will also put the cat on antibiotics, the proper ones for that type of infection.

What can you give your cat for pain due to a pulled out eye?
If this has happened take your cat to the vet immediately! This is a serious injury and should be handled by a vet. The vet can clean and treat the wound. They will give your cat antibiotics to insure deadly infection does not set in, and will give your cat safe medications to alleviate pain. It is not fair to make the cat suffer by not taking it to a vet, and human pain medication is usually lethal to cats. So do not try to medicate your cat yourself.
