Abstract

Conjunctivitis, commonly referred to as pink eye, is an inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin membrane covering the white part of the eye and the inner surface of the eyelids. It manifests with symptoms such as redness, itching, tearing, and discharge from the eyes, and can be caused by viral or bacterial infections, allergies, or irritants. This article provides an overview of conjunctivitis, including its symptoms, causes, treatment options, and prevention strategies. While most cases of conjunctivitis resolve without complications, proper diagnosis and management are crucial to alleviate symptoms, prevent transmission, and minimize potential complications.
