Eye Infections

Conjunctivitis

Infectious conjunctivitis is one of the most common eye infections that humans get. It is often popularly called pink eye. The conjunctiva can develop an infection. This is called conjunctivitis. You can also get a similar condition from being exposed to harsh chemicals such as chlorine. Eye allergies can also cause these symptoms. If the infection was spread by contracting a virus or bacteria, it can be contagious, and you may need to keep yourself away from others to prevent it from spreading. If you have eyes that are pink, watery, and itchy, it can be important to see an eye doctor to get treatment for it.

Keratitis

Keratitis is another type of eye condition that may be associated with an infection. This type is an infection of the cornea. Your corneas are clear layers that sit on top of the eye on the iris and pupil to protect them. If an infectious agent gets into your eyes, it can cause the corneas to become infected. This can happen with fungi, bacteria, and viruses. This type of infection might cause corneal swelling and eye redness. It may also cause watery eyes as well as eye pain. When you open or close your eyelids, it may be painful.
