Eye Infections are eye ailments that are caused by bacterial, viral, or other microbiological agents. There are many different types of eye infections with different causes and treatments. Some eye infections are common while others are rare.
Most of us will either have come upon an eye infection or know someone who has had one. People who wear contact
lenses often find themselves getting some type of eye infection. This is due to the bacterial buildup from constantly wearing the lenses without proper disinfecting. Some common eye infections are pink eye and Blepharitis. Trachoma is another eye infection, more common in poor countries, that is spread easily and can lead to blindness. Eye infections usually require some type of medication for treatment. Although some are not as dangerous, there are some eye infections that require a doctor's immediate attention. If you believe you have an eye infection, you should seek an eye care professional for advice on type and treatment of the eye infection. Eye infections can affect any part of the eyes from the eye lids to the cornea and even to the optic nerves in the back of the eye.
