Seasonal allergic conjunctivitis (hay fever conjunctivitis) and year-round or perennial allergic conjunctivitis (atopic conjunctivitis, atopic keratoconjunctivitis) are the most common types of allergic reaction in the eyes.
Conjunctivitis is usually due to allergy, infection or irritation of the conjunctiva. Allergy is a very common cause. Infection is the most common cause and, in addition to itch, redness and grittiness, there is usually a sticky discharge. Many germs (bacteria and viruses) can cause conjunctivitis.
Chronic allergic conjunctivitis is nonseasonal, occurring continuously or on and off year-round. It is less common and potentially more severe than the acute type. It is caused by an allergen to which the person is more or less continually exposed (dust, foods, danders, etc.).
There are three main types of conjunctivitis: viral, bacterial, and allergic. However, conjunctivitis can also be caused by irritants, such as a foreign body in the eye, chemicals, or pollutants.
Conjunctivitis can result from many causes, including viruses, bacteria, allergens, contact lens use, chemicals, fungi, and certain diseases.
Acute bacterial conjunctivitis is primary due to Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Haemophilus influenzae. Other pathogens responsible for acute disease are Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Moraxella lacunata, Streptococcus viridans, and Proteus mirabilis.
Chloramphenicol is usually the first choice of antibiotic and comes in the form of eye drops. It's available without a prescription from pharmacies to treat bacterial conjunctivitis.
Conjunctivitis is an eye condition caused by infection or allergies. It usually gets better in a couple of weeks without treatment.
Bacterial conjunctivitis normally causes a yellow or green sticky discharge. Viral conjunctivitis normally causes a watery discharge.
Viral Conjunctivitis The infection will usually clear up in 7 to 14 days without treatment and without any long-term consequences. However, in some cases, viral conjunctivitis can take 2 to 3 weeks or more to clear up. A doctor can prescribe antiviral medication to treat more serious forms of conjunctivitis.
