Pink Eye & Styes

Pink eye (Conjunctivitis) and a Sty are conditions that infect a person’s eye. Pink eye occurs when the outer membrane and eyelid become infected or inflamed after being exposed to bacteria or severe allergies. This condition is easily spread and patients are recommended to seek immediate medical attention and avoid contact with other people. Symptoms of pink eye include redness, itching, and tearing of the eyes, and it may also produce a discharge from the eye and crusting of eye fluid.

A sty is a pimple-looking lump that develops on a person’s eyelid after the small glands on the eyelid are blocked or exposed to certain bacteria. A sty is usually self-treatable with a warm cloth. However, in extreme conditions, a sty may require medication to reduce pain and inflammation.
