What is Understanding Keratitis and Conjunctivitis about?

Keratitis is an inflammation of the cornea that can be caused by bacterial, viral, fungal, or non-infectious factors. Bacterial keratitis is often caused by Staphylococcus or Streptococcus and presents with pain, photophobia, and purulent discharge. Treatment involves topical broad-spectrum antibiotics until pathogen identification. Fungal keratitis tends to arise in injured corneas and presents with feathery borders; treatment involves antifungal medications like amphotericin B or surgery if unresponsive.
