Many eye conditions are common and manageable when diagnosed early. Awareness and timely treatment can help maintain comfort and protect vision.
What Are Common Eye Conditions?
This category includes a variety of issues that affect the eye’s surface, eyelids, and internal structures, such as:
Conjunctivitis (Pink Eye): Inflammation or infection of the conjunctiva causing redness, irritation, and discharge.
Corneal abrasion: A scratch or injury to the clear front surface of the eye, causing pain, tearing, and light sensitivity.
Styes and Chalazions: Painful or painless lumps on the eyelid due to blocked glands or infection.
Uveitis: Inflammation inside the eye that can cause redness, pain, and vision changes.
Who Should Seek Care?
Anyone experiencing persistent redness, pain, swelling, vision changes, or discomfort should have an eye evaluation. Early diagnosis improves outcomes.
