What is Infectious conjunctivititis about?

Infectious conjunctivitis is one of the three leading causes of red eye (besides of allergic conjunctivitis and dry eye syndrome). Therefore patients with these disorders are frequently seen by general practitioners and pediatricians in their every day practice. Most cases of infectious conjunctivitis are self-limiting but some of them may progress and may cause severe ocular complications or they may be associated with involvement of other organs. The aim of this article is to present, in a concise form, the most important information on how to establish the proper diagnosis, how to choose appropriate therapy and help to make dicisions about which cases can be treated by general practitioners and which should be referred for treatment by ophthalmologists.
