Contagious eye infections often cause discharge, redness, swelling, itching, and crusting, while non-contagious types typically present with fewer distinct symptoms.
Pink eye is often bacterial and highly contagious through sharing items with an infected person, while fungal infections are less common and have a low transmission risk.
A balanced diet including egg yolks, walnuts, and mangoes provides vitamins A and C along with antioxidants that help protect eyes and prevent disease.
Applying warm compresses, cucumber slices, aloe vera gel around the eyes, or blinking more frequently can increase eye moisture, reducing dryness and irritation.
Aging makes it difficult for eyes to focus on nearby objects, reduces light sensitivity, and increases susceptibility to eye diseases such as cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration.
