Regarding Conjunctivitis

2020-03-30 20:48:33
I am suffering conjunctivitis for the past 2-3 days. My eyes are reddish, and mild irritation is there. Because of the current lockdown, i could not visit any ophthalmologist. I am applying eyelet eye drop to my eyes it gives temporary relief. However, the reddishness and irritation is still there. Any suggestions as to what to do? Any better eye drops?

If you really have conjunctivitis, it could be allergic or infective. So the treatment will depend on that. Eyelet drops alone will not be enough.
