Pink eye (conjunctivitis) causes redness, itching, discharge, and swelling in the eye. It can be viral, bacterial, or allergic. Treatments include eye drops, antihistamines, or supportive care, depending on cause.
Pink eye, or conjunctivitis, is a common eye condition characterized by redness, itching, and discharge. It affects people of all ages and can spread easily. Understanding its causes and treatment options helps in prompt relief and prevention.
Patients typically experience redness, itching, tearing, and a thick discharge. Swelling of the eyelids and sensitivity to light may also occur. Symptoms vary based on the cause and severity.
A healthcare provider conducts an eye examination and may take a sample for lab testing to determine the cause. Early diagnosis ensures appropriate treatment.
Preventive measures include frequent hand washing, avoiding eye touching, and not sharing personal items. If symptoms persist beyond a week, worsen, or affect vision, consult a healthcare professional promptly.
