Description

Conjunctivitis, also known as "pinkeye," is an acute inflammation of the

conjunctiva of the eye, which is a thin protective lining of the eyelids and

eyeball. It is caused by bacterial or viral infection or an allergic sensitivity

to an irritant.

Symptoms

The eye appears red and bloodshot, and there is often lots of watering and

a clear or purulent (pus) discharge, depending on whether the infection is

viral or bacterial. The eyelids are usually swollen. Intense itching occurs

with allergic conjunctivitis. The eye feels irritated and painful, and there is

a burning sensation or a feeling that something is in the eye.

Complications

Conjunctivitis may become chronic or may damage the eye if left untreated.

 

 Homeopathic Medicine

3.I When fever, redness,and throbbing pain are prominent, Belladonna is the medicine.

4. I If the main symptom is excessive, irritating tears, give Euphrasia.

5.I If the discharge is thick, creamy, and yellow-green in a whiny, moody person,give Pulsatilla.

6. I If burning in the eyes is prominent in a lazy, philosophical egotist, give Sulphur.
