During the monsoon season, the humidity, stagnant water, and increased moisture create an environment conducive to the growth and transmission of pathogens. This makes us more susceptible to conjunctivitis.
Viral conjunctivitis is a common occurrence during the monsoon season. Monsoon brings an abundance of allergens such as pollen, mould, and dust. Allergic conjunctivitis is triggered when these allergens come into contact with the eyes. Bacterial conjunctivitis is highly contagious and can be easily transmitted through direct contact with an infected person or contaminated surfaces.
Although the infection doesn’t represent a major risk to the health of your eyes, it is irritating while it lasts. Also, it interferes with your job or study schedule given that going outside is not advised. However, conjunctivitis which is becoming more prevalent today is extremely contagious, therefore one must take all appropriate precautions.
