Ophelia is, by Act 4, no longer a functional person. The king orders Horatio to "follow her close; give her good watch I pray you" because she cannot look after herself. Hamlet, on the other hand, although we do not see him very much in Act 4, is very much able to look after himself. In the scene immediately following Ophelia's last appearance, Horatio receives a letter in which Hamlet describes how he helped defend his ship against pirates, boarded the pirate ship and now has convinced them to return him to Denmark. He is still more than competent.
