How is red eye disease transmitted

summary

Red eye disease is a common infectious disease in our daily life. I have also had such a disease, mainly because my eyes are red, and there will be eye excrement. Let's introduce how red eye disease is transmitted?

How is red eye disease transmitted

First of all, red eye disease is a kind of disease that is mainly transmitted through contact, such as washbasin, towel, hand tap, public bath, toys, etc. Therefore, the disease is often widely spread in kindergartens, schools, hospitals, factories and other collective units, resulting in outbreaks.

In the early stage of illness, the patients felt that their eyes were hot, burning, photophobia and redness. They felt that their eyes were sore and rolled like sand. Then, their eyelids were red and swollen, they were afraid of light and shed tears. When they got up in the morning, their eyelids were often stuck by secretions and were not easy to open. Some patients have small bleeding spots or bleeding spots on the conjunctiva, secretions are mucinous purulent, sometimes form a layer of gray pseudomembrane on the surface of the eyelid conjunctiva, there may be gray infiltration points on the edge of the cornea, and serious cases may be accompanied by headache, fever, fatigue, preauricular lymphadenopathy and other systemic symptoms.

Finally, red eye disease generally does not affect vision, if a large number of mucopurulent secretions adhere to the corneal surface, there may be temporary blurred vision or iridescence (in front of a rainbow like aperture), once the secretion is wiped off, the vision can be clear. If bacterial or viral infection affects the cornea, photophobia, tears, pain will increase, vision will also have a certain degree of decline.

matters needing attention

The spread of red eye disease is particularly fast, so we should pay attention to prevention in peacetime. The things used by red eye patients must be disinfected, and they can't touch the things used by red eye patients.
