Red eye symptoms?

Generally, after being infected with pathogenic bacteria, there is an incubation period of one to three days, and the onset of the disease occurs in both eyes at the same time or at an interval of one or two days. The duration of the disease is one to two weeks, which is related to the individual's constitution. The disease is most serious in the third and fourth days after the onset, and then it will gradually improve.

If the patient looks in the mirror or other people can see that there is obvious redness in his eyes, and the patient consciously has a hot burning feeling. Some people can't see things in bright light, are afraid of light, or often shed tears unconsciously. Although the conjunctiva looks red, the patient's vision does not decline. If the corneal surface is attached by secretions, it may appear blurred vision, just rinse the secretions with eye drops, vision will recover.

People with red eye disease often produce many times or even dozens of times more secretions than normal people, and most of them are sticky or purulent secretions. When getting up in the morning, because the secretions stick the upper and lower eyelids together, the patients will find it very difficult to open their eyes. They must use clean water or eye drops with cotton swabs to wipe the secretions before they can open their eyes.
