How is pink eye transmitted in children?

Conjunctivitis is an eye disease caused by bacterial infection. If you observe carefully, you will find that more and more children now have conjunctivitis. And why is conjunctivitis becoming more and more common in children today? Based on the living habits of more and more children today, I have summarized the following points, hoping that they will be of some help to you.

1. Bacterial infection

1. Computer keyboards and mice become accomplices of conjunctivitis

Computer keyboards and mice have become a new channel for conjunctivitis infection. Unsterilized computers and keyboards store a large number of viruses, and dust and sweat stains are added every day. In addition, the poor air circulation in the workplace and the long-term eye fatigue of white-collar workers all provide favorable conditions for the invasion and reproduction of viruses.

2. 3D glasses cause red eye

With the recent success of 3D movies, the number of citizens watching 3D movies has gradually increased. After watching 3D movies, some viewers always feel something wrong with their eyes, and even feel red and itchy.

2. Viral Infection

Common colds, influenza or other viral infections can cause acute conjunctivitis, symptoms of which include tearing, itchy eyes, red eyes, burning sensation, and even swollen eyelids, often referred to as "pink eye." If you suffer from pink eye, you can use artificial tears, apply cold compresses, or use eye drops prescribed by a doctor. Viral infections can spread quickly, so you should wash your hands frequently, avoid rubbing your eyes, and do not share towels with others.

What are the transmission routes of conjunctivitis in children? Combining the points summarized, the first thing we need to recommend is our personal hygiene. When the eyes feel uncomfortable or red, you need to go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment in time. Especially during the illness, do not eat spicy food. I hope my summary can help you and I wish you a happy life.
