Pink Eye – Causes, Symptomskl and Treatment
What is Pink Eye – Conjunctivitis: Pink eye or conjunctivitis refers to a redness or irritation of the membranes on the inner part of the eyelids and the membranes covering the whites of the eyes.
What Causes Pink Eye
The leading cause of pink eye is a viral infection, which is highly contagious. Bacteria such as staphylococci, pneumococci, and streptococci cause bacterial pink eye, which is also very contagious. Non-contagious pink eye can result from allergies or exposure to chemical irritants. Rheumatic diseases, Kawasaki’s disease, and certain inflammatory bowel diseases can cause pinkeye. Additionally, dry eyes from lack of tears or exposure to wind and sun can cause pink eye, as can foreign bodies such as dirt or bugs.
Viruses and bacteria can cause eye infections. Infection may begin in the eye or elsewhere in the body, such as the nose or throat. Sexually transmitted diseases can also cause eye infections
Symptoms of Pink Eye
Symptoms generally depend on what type of pink eye you have: infectious pink eye or non infectious.
Symptoms caused by viral and bacterial pink eye include red watery eyes (accompanied with discharge) and irritation. It is likely to start in one eye and spread to the other. Infectious pink eye is contagious.
Symptoms of non infectious pink eye might include, heavy tearing, irritation and itchiness. Both eyes are usually affected. This type isn’t contagious.
There may be some itching or pain and there is usually some type of discharge that is worse when you wake up as the eyes may be crusty or sticky after sleeping. Mostly both eyes are affected but it often starts with one and then the other follows. Sometimes people with pink eye are sensitive to light.
Recheck the eye about an hour later. If there is just a small quantity of crusty discharge, then the cause of this eye irritation is likely viral. If, however, a creamy, runny or stringy discharge is forming then the cause is probably bacterial. Conjunctivitis is irritating but should not be too painful. If there is a lot of pain, you should see your nurse/doctor. Follow the instructions in Home Suggestions and you should be able to take care of this illness at home.
Treatment Options for Common Pink Eye
The recommended supplements for persons with eye infection are vitamins A and C, Colloidal Silver, Zinc, and Chamomile. Vitamin A is known to be good for the development of good eyesight and other eye functions. Vitamin C helps the body to fight infection. One may take Zinc, at moderate levels, to protect retinal cells from damages caused by antioxidants. Professional medical advice, however, may be necessary if one intends to take zinc supplements particularly targeted for the health of the eyes. Colloidal Silver is considered a natural antibiotic.

The Best That I Could Do 1978-1988 $7.18 The Best That I Could Do collects the singles that led John Mellencamp into the radio/jukebox pantheon he celebrated in “R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.” and “Cherry Bomb.” While albums such as American Fool, Uh Huh, and Scarecrow held Top 10 spots for months, their spinoff hits made this Hoosier disciple of Jagger, J.B., and Iggy into something like a Reagan-era John Fogerty: not only were “Pink Houses,” … |

Third $6.86 Portishead’s Third has been a long time coming, the result of a lengthy creative torpor following 1997′s dark, distinctly underrated album Portishead. Importantly, though, they’ve shaken it. While the core trio of Beth Gibbons, Geoff Barrow, and Adrian Utley remains, this is quite a different band to Portishead’s 90s incarnation: gone is the slo-mo turntable scratching and smoky jazz feel, replace… |
