Also known as conjunctivitis, pink eye is the inflammation or infection of the transparent membrane covering our eyes. It causes a pinkish reddish color due to the inflammation of red blood cells in the transparent membrane or conjunctiva.
Bacterial or viral infection, allergies, chemical splash, blocked tear duct, or foreign bodies in the eye are common causes of pink eye. The most common symptoms are:
- Redness in one or both eyes
- Itchiness in one or both eyes
- A gritty feeling in one or both eyes
- A discharge that forms a crust preventing your eye from opening in the morning
- Tearing
Pink eye is contagious, so early intervention is very important.
