Patient's question:
My profession is delivering packages, and I'm always on the go. Sometimes, I experience dry eyes, which is common. But recently, my eyes have been extremely dry, with severe tearing and redness as well. I visited a clinic, and the doctor diagnosed it as conjunctivitis. I want to know what causes conjunctivitis?Doctor's answer:
There are many different causes of conjunctivitis, such as bacterial infection or viral conjunctivitis. Additionally, indirect transmission can also lead to the recurrence of this disease. Indeed, prolonged riding of electric bikes outdoors in the wind is most likely to cause eye inflammation. It is recommended to wear glasses when going out during this period to prevent the wind from worsening the condition. Then, before taking a nap every night, use a hot towel to apply to the eyes, which helps relieve eye fatigue and has an anti-inflammatory effect.
