Pink eye or conjunctivitis is an inflammation that surrounds the eyelid and part of the eyeball. Pink eye is usually caused by an infection that can be viral or bacterial. It can also be caused by an allergic reaction.
Although the condition can be painful there are no affects to the vision in the eye. However, Pink eye can be contagious so it’s a good idea to see a doctor if you suspect you have pink eye. Early diagnosis and treatment will limit the spread of the condition.
Some common symptoms of Pink eye that can occur and one or both eyes are:
Redness and swelling surrounding the eyes.
Experiencing itchiness or a gritty feeling
A discharge coming from the eyes that forms a crust at night.
Tearing up in the eyes.
There are different types of treatments and a doctor will determine which one is suitable for which form of pink eye you are dealing with. To learn more about Pink eye you can go to google health, WebMD, or Mayo Clinic.
