Pink eye, also known as conjunctivitis, is a common and highly contagious eye infection characterized by inflammation of the conjunctiva – the thin, clear tissue that lines the inside of the eyelid and covers the whites of the eyes. This condition earns its name due to the telltale symptom it presents: reddish or pink discoloration in one or both eyes. Pink eye can be caused by several factors including bacterial or viral infections, allergies, irritants like smoke or chemicals, and even certain sexually transmitted diseases. Regardless of its origins, pink eye typically manifests with uncomfortable symptoms such as itching, burning sensations, excessive tearing, or discharge which may lead to crusting around the eyes. While proper hygiene practices such as handwashing and avoiding touching your face can help prevent this ailment from spreading further among individuals in close proximity – particularly in places like schools or offices where transmission is swift – timely medical intervention remains crucial to alleviate discomfort and prevent prolonged recuperation periods associated with this common ocular affliction.
