About Conjunctivitis

Conjunctivitis, also called pink eye or Madras eye, is an infection in or inflammation of the conjunctiva. It affects either one or both a person's eyes and can be the result of an allergy, bacteria, or a virus. Allergens such as smoke, pollen, dust mites, eye drops, cosmetics, and perfumes can lead to conjunctivitis. It is usually associated with redness of the eye along with the release of mucoid discharges. Although the condition usually heals without medication, antibiotics are commonly used for treatment to avoid complications due to irritation of the eye.
