Eye Infections Explained

An eye infection occurs when harmful microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, or fungi invade the eye’s delicate tissues. These infections can affect various parts of the eye, including the eyelids, conjunctiva (the clear membrane covering the white part of the eye), cornea (the clear front surface of the eye), or even the inside of the eye.

The cause of the infection can vary, from common sources like bacteria and viruses to less frequent causes such as fungi or parasites. Effective treatment not only relieves symptoms but also prevents potential complications, ensuring the overall health and comfort of the eyes.
