10 Eye Infection Symptoms
Symptom #4: Itchy Eyes
Itchy eyes are often a cause of an allergy or some other irritant. The itching causes us to rub our eyes, and this can encourage whatever is bothering us to be flushed from the eye. It doesn’t usually last for too long, but it can last for longer in some cases.
Patients that have an eye infection will sometimes find that their eyes are itching all of the time. This can make matters even worse as it can be very difficult for the patient to resist the temptation to rub their eyes. It is often a good idea to cover the eye to protect it from excessive rubbing.
