Is it possible to continue taking Oxycort A if the tube has been rubbed with a paper towel?

Is "Oxycort A" eye ointment possible for further use if the tube has been rubbed with a paper towel? My woman accidentally did this, she believes that nothing happened, but on the leaflet there is a description "do not touch the tube of the eye and other surfaces". Although the question may be abstract, for me it is quite serious.

Jeśli tuba została przetarta ręcznikiem papierowym, to lek może być dalej stosowany, jednak jeśli otwór tuby (po odkręceniu nakrętki), którym podaje się maść do oka miał styczność z papierem, to takiego leku nie powinno się już stosować. Bakterie, które znajdują się na papierze i miały kontakt z wylotem tubki, mogą zostać przeniesione do oka i spowodować zakażenie.
