A conjunctival foreign body should be suspected if a patient presents with a sensation of something in the eye. Patients with a conjunctival foreign body often state that their eye feels as if an irritating object—like grit, “junk,” sand, or glass—is in it but that they cannot localize exactly where the sensation is.
The physician picks the foreign body or mineral deposit from the conjunctiva with the side of the beveled edge of a needle (e.g., 65205).

In conjunctival laceration, the tissue is torn and split, revealing bare sclera beneath. In these cases, the trauma itself acts as an antigen and sets off an inflammatory cascade resulting in vasodilation and edema of the involved and surrounding tissues.

Allergic conjunctivitis is an inflammatory response of the conjunctiva to an allergen. It is part of a larger systemic atopic reaction and is usually seasonal with associated upper respiratory tract symptoms and complaints of redness and swelling of the conjunctiva with severe itching and increased lacrimation.

Lid scrubs with a commercially prepared eyelid cleansing foam or pad product are preferred over baby shampoo for this procedure. Adjunctive treatment with a broad-spectrum oral penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotic, such as amoxicillin/ clavulanate potass ium, may be indicated in hyperacute conjunctivitis, chronic conjunctivitis related to lid disease or if associated preseptal cellulitis is suspected. For Neisseria gonorrhoeae-related hyperacute conjunctivitis, one gram of ceftriaxone by IM injection is required.
Excessive mucous can be generated in any type of conjunctivitis, depending upon the severity of the infl ammatory response and irritation to the conjunctival goblet cells. Pseudomembrane formation is due to fi brin in the exudative material; it indicates a higher degree of infl ammation.
Most conjunctivitis cases exhibit an exudative response. Findings may include serous production (i.e., tearing); mucoid, mucopurulent or purulent discharge; fi brinous material or hemorrhage. The serous response may also lead to conjunctival chemosis. Serous discharge or excessive tearing is usually seen with allergic, toxic or viral conjunctivitis, while mucopurulent and/or purulent exudate
Tissue findings in conjunctivitis can manifest as either a papillary or follicular response. Papillae, typically seen in bacterial infection as a response to chronic irritation or allergy, are raised tissue masses found on the palpebral conjunctiva with a central vessel and are created by a focal infi ltration of infl ammatory cells. The type of infl ammatory cell depends on the underlying etiology—for example, eosinophils in allergic conditions vs. neutrophils in bacterial disease.
This depends on the practitioner’s ability to accurately assess the patient’s symptoms and distinguish the clinical signs. Both of these tasks can pose signifi cant challenges for the clinician.
