👁️ Red, itchy eyes during monsoon? It could be conjunctivitis!
Also known as “eye flu,” conjunctivitis is an eye infection that causes redness, itching, and discharge. It spreads easily—especially when personal items like towels, makeup, or lenses are shared.
🔹 Why it’s common in monsoon:
There’s a 20–30% surge in conjunctivitis cases during the rainy season. Cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata see some of the highest spikes in India due to humidity and increased infections.
✨ Prevention tips to protect your eyes:
✔️ Maintain good hygiene – wash your hands regularly and avoid rubbing your eyes.
✔️ Don’t share towels, pillows, makeup, or lenses.
✔️ Seek prompt medical help if symptoms like redness, itching, or discharge appear.
