Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye, is an inflammation of the conjunctiva caused most commonly by viral or bacterial infections. Symptoms include redness, irritation, watering eyes, and discharge. Treatment depends on the severity but may include cold compresses, artificial tears, anti-inflammatory medications, antibiotics, or steroid eye drops. It is important to practice good hygiene to prevent the spread of conjunctivitis through direct contact with infected secretions or contaminated surfaces.
Conjunctivitis is an inflammation or swelling of the conjunctiva. Often called "pink eye," conjunctivitis is a common eye disease, especially in children. It may affect one or both eyes.

INTRODUCTION
is inflammation of the outermost layer of the white part
of the eye and the inner surface of the eyelid.
it makes the eye appear pink or reddish Pain, burning,
scratchiness, or itchiness may occur The affected eye may
have increased tears or be "stuck shut" in the morning
Swelling of the white part of the eye may also occur Itching
is more common in cases due to allergie Conjunctivitis can
affect one or both eyes
The important diseases recognized as responsible for visual impairment and blindness in India are cataract, refraction errors, glaucoma, conjunctivitis.
Mal nutrition and systemic disease are also important contributing factors.
Other causes include are eye injury, congenital disorders, retinal detachment, tumors, leprosy etc.
The visual disorder can be found as the following problems.
Amblyopia or subnormal vision in one or both eyes in spite of correction of significant refractive error.
Night blindness – it means inability to well at night or in faint light. It may occur in retinitis, choroidoretinistis, Vit A deficiency, retina toxic drugs.
Double Vision – It is found in squint, ptosis. It may be warning sign of increase IOP, brain tumor, orbital or myasthenia gravis.
Color blindness – It is a genetically determine condition in which color perception is defective or absent. Red and green color deficiency is the usual found. It can be detected at the age of 5 to 6 years’ age.
It is found in about 8% of the male population and is inherited as sex linked recessive trait. Color blindness may be total or partial there is no specific treatment.
Some main responsible disease for visual impairments in India :-
Conjunctivitis
Cataract
Refractory errors
Glaucoma
Retinopathy of Prematurity
Conjunctivitis- Prevention Tips and TreatmentsMahavratPatel
Homeopathic medicines encourage natural healing at the cellular level and strengthen the immune response and function of affected organs by restoring the natural ecosystem of the body in such a way that microorganisms no longer find it conducive to their existence. In Homeopathy ultra-diluted doses of naturally occurring substances – plants, minerals or animal-are used to stimulate a sick person’s natural defenses. At Dr, Mahavrat’s Cosmic Homeo Healing Centre, highly effective treatment is offered to fight against several eye infections, including conjunctivitis. We take individual care and dedicate ourselves to holistic treatment.
The membrane that lines the eyelids and the white part of the eye [sclera] is called the conjunctiva. When the small blood vessels in the conjunctiva are inflamed, they swell and become more visible causes the eyes to appear reddish .that’s why conjunctivitis is often called pink eye or red eye
conjuctivitis is defined as Inflammation or infection of the outer membrane of the eyeball and the inner eyelid.
It is also known by the name Pink eye.
Conjunctivitis can be considered as allergic, viral or bacterial
viral conjunctivitis is the most common among all and is highly contagious one so the presentation describes the basic overview on viral conjunctivitis
2. Conjunctivitis also called pink eye or
madras eye refers to inflammation of the
conjunctiva the outermost layer of the
eye and the inner surface of the eyelids. It
is most commonly due to an infection,
usually viral, but sometimes bacterial or
an allergic reaction.

4. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS:
• red eye (hyperaemia)
• irritation (chemosis)
• watering (epiphora) of the eyes
TREATMENT:
• cool water poured over the face
with the head inclined downward
constricts capillaries, and artificial
tears sometimes relieve
discomfort in mild cases. In more
severe cases, non-steroidal anti-
inflammatory medications and
antihistamines may be
prescribed. Persistent allergic
conjunctivitis may also require
topical steroid drops.
5. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS:
• often associated with an
infection of the upper respiratory
tract
• watery discharge
• variable itch
TREATMENT:
• symptomatic relief may be
achieved with cold compresses
and artificial tears. People are
often advised to avoid touching
their eyes or sharing towels and
washcloths
6. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS:
• grittiness/irritation
• stringy, opaque, greyish or yellowish
mucopurulent discharge
• severe crusting of the infected eye
and the surrounding skin
TREATMENT:
• Antibiotics, eye drops, or ointment
are thus only needed if no
improvement is observed after 3
days. In patients receiving no
antibiotics recovery was in 4.8 days,
immediate antibiotics 3.3 days,
delayed antibiotics 3.9 days. No
serious effects were noted either
with or without treatment.
7. Transmission occurs through direct contact with the
secretions from an infected eye, or contact with
objects or surfaces that have been contaminated
with these secretions. The virus or bacteria can be
transmitted when an infected person touches their
eye and then touches another surface. Symptoms
tend to develop one to three days after transmission
occurs.
8. A person can spread conjunctivitis during
the course of active infection.
Depending upon the cause of the
infection, communicability may be
longer, i.e. up to 14 days after onset. It is
infectious while there is discharge.
9. Everyone is susceptible to infection
and repeated attacks due to the
same or different bacteria are
possible. Maternal infection does
not confer immunity to the child.
10. • Practicing good hygiene is the best way to control
the spread of pink eye.
• Avoid touching your eyes or the area near your eyes
with your hands.
• Wash your hands regularly with disinfectants.
• Don't share washcloths, towels or pillowcases with
anyone else, and wash these items after each use.
• Disinfecting surfaces like counter tops, sinks, and
door knobs can also help prevent the spread of
infectious pink eye.
11. Conjunctivitis due to bacterial infection may
be difficult to distinguish clinically from
allergic or viral conjunctivitis or that due to
physical irritation. Therefore, empirical
antibiotic therapy is often used. Patients with
significant eye pain, loss of vision or
photophobia require immediate referral to an
ophthalmologist.
12. In mild cases propamidine eye drops are the usual
treatment.
In moderate and severe cases a combination of
treatments may be used. Consult the current
version of Therapeutic guidelines: antibiotic
(Therapeutic Guidelines Limited). An eye ointment
may be used at bedtime. Soiled articles should be
discarded or disinfected. Rigorous hand washing
before and after eye examinations and toilets is
important in preventing further transmission.
Children should not attend school and child care
settings until discharge from the eyes has ceased.
13. the EYE is the WINDOW
to the SOUL; so keep it
HEALTHY.
