Eye Disease #9: Conjunctivitis
Part of your eyes are protected with help from a thin membrane known as the conjunctiva. This membrane protects the inner eyelids and the front of the eye. The conjunctiva can become inflamed and sore in a condition which we know as conjunctiva. The eye will appear red and very swollen.
Conjunctivitis can be the result of a range of different causes. It is usually due to bacterial or viral infections. It is very contagious and you should try to avoid contact with anybody that has the infection. It is particularly common in young children and it can spread through schools very quickly.
