Black fungus (mucormycosis) is usually ocurring ,in current scenerio, in those patients who had history of covid , are diabetics , oxygen and steroids were given to them . If such is the case then the black fungus should be ruled out by examination, if such kind of history is not there in your case then most likely it will be conjunctivitis or meibomitis .
