What treatments are available for herpetic conjunctivitis

There are many types of conjunctivitis, which are relatively common, and they are very harmful, and at the same time, they also make patients suffer deeply, but have you ever heard of herpetic conjunctivitis? Is this type of conjunctivitis** easy? And what are the ways to do it?

Herpetic conjunctivitis** is usually a featureless, self-limited conjunctivitis that may be accompanied by vesicular blepharitis. ** (secondary) usually epithelial keratitis (also known as dendritic keratitis). Herpetic conjunctivitis is characterized by dendritic lesions of the corneal epithelium that resemble the veins of a leaf and are spherical in their ends.

Early symptoms are foreign body sensation, lacrimation, photophobia, and conjunctival injection, and with recurrent **, corneal sensation decreases or disappears, and herpetic conjunctivitis** may result in corneal ulceration and permanent corneal scarring. Discoid keratitis, which involves the corneal stroma, is discoid localized edema and opacity in the deep cornea with iritis, often following epithelial keratitis. Discoid keratitis may represent the body's immune response to the virus.

Epithelial defects that do not heal or heal very slowly due to repeated herpes simplex viruses are called ** ulcers. Herpetic conjunctivitis** (eg, fluoroside 1% eye drops 9 times a day or adenosine 3% ointment 5 times a day) tend to be effective. Occasionally, acyclovir 400 mg orally 5 times a day is required.

I hope it will help the patient's condition, and the above content hopes to help you, and you should pay more attention to the prevention of eye diseases in your life.

Herpetic conjunctivitis is usually caused by infection with the herpes simplex virus and then affecting conjunctival tissue. Therefore, for this disease, it is necessary to choose sensitive antiviral drugs to control local inflammation in the early stage, such as ribavirin eye drops, ganciclovir gel, etc.

The biggest harm of this disease is that it is easy to affect the cornea, resulting in the symptoms of viral keratoconjunctivitis, once the corneal infiltration appears, it is more difficult.

Therefore, it is recommended that once similar manifestations are found, it is necessary to add some drugs to promote corneal repair to promote corneal healing, such as recombinant bovine alkaline fibroblast growth factor eye drops.

Catarrhal conjunctivitis, epidemic hemorrhagic conjunctivitis.

There are two types of catarrhal conjunctivitis: acute or chronic. Acute catarrhal conjunctivitis has an acute onset, often in both eyes or both eyes successively, and its clinical symptoms are mainly manifested as foreign body sensation, burning sensation, photophobia, tearing, conjunctival hyperemia, and discharge, which can be mucinous or purulent. Not contagious.

The second is that pink eye is mainly caused by a viral infection. Onset in both eyes at the same time, with severe foreign body sensation, tingling, photophobia, tearing, and discharge. Redness and swelling of the eyelids, hyperconjunctival hyperemia, edema, and subconjunctival hemorrhage, which may be severe and may affect the entire conjunctiva.

The cornea can be damaged. Swollen lymph nodes behind the ear.

Generally, it is conjunctivitis caused by the decline of the body's resistance, coupled with the heat, staying up late, and excessive use of the eyes. It is recommended to choose a regular hospital ophthalmology with a slit lamp examination, to determine the type of conjunctivitis, if it is bacterial conjunctivitis, in general, you can use topical anti-inflammatory eye drops, and anti-inflammatory eye ointment, generally can be recovered in a week, and conjunctivitis is generally timely**, generally has no effect on vision.

Hello! There are many types of conjunctivitis, such as bacterial conjunctivitis, fungal conjunctivitis, viral conjunctivitis. The clinical manifestations of different conjunctivitis are different, and the methods are also different.

Bacterial conjunctivitis is predominantly antibacterial**. Fungal conjunctivitis is predominantly antifungal**.

Viral conjunctivitis is primarily antiviral**. However, the specific ** plan will not be known until after the inspection.

Hello: Conjunctivitis is bacterial and non-bacterial, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis after the targeting** is better. It is best not to use the medicine indiscriminately for the eyes, and the medication must be taken under the doctor's supervision.

Conjunctivitis is allergic, bacterial, viral, I have had allergic and bacterial, allergic, itchy, my eyes are basically not red, I have seen a lot of doctors, ointment or something is not easy to use, and finally I used sodium cromolyn eye drops, it was fine in less than a week, and it was consolidated for a few weeks, and it was very useful. Bacterial conjunctivitis is ferocious, the eyes are red and swollen, itchy, painful, the eyes have pseudomembranes, which can be torn off, no trauma, there are often banded secretions in the eyes, serious ones should be hung up for 3 days, eat cephalosporin to reduce inflammation, bacterial conjunctivitis eye drops (if you do not do a detailed examination in the hospital, it is best to use eye drops for viral conjunctivitis at the same time), apply chlortetracycline and other eye ointments in the eyelids before going to bed at night, and it will be basically fine within 1 month, and you must pay attention to eye rest. Pure viral conjunctivitis can only be determined by a detailed examination in the hospital, the medication is basically ineffective, there is self-healing, you can drop ** viral conjunctivitis eye drops, and you can ask in the pharmacy.

Patients with severe viral conjunctivitis may complain of significant photophobia and foreign body sensation, and the conjunctival surface may have fibrin pseudomembranes and inflammatory cells or focal corneal inflammation. Even after the conjunctivitis has resolved, residual corneal scarring (up to 2 years or more) can be seen on slit-lamp examination. Occasionally, this corneal scarring can cause vision loss and significant glare.

1. Symptoms.

In the early stage of the disease, the patient feels that the eyes are hot, burning, photophobia, and red, and the eyes are painful, and the pain is unbearable like entering the sand, followed by the eyelids are red and swollen, afraid of light, and tearful, and when they get up in the morning, the eyelids are often stuck by secretions, and it is not easy to open. In some patients, small hemorrhagic spots or hemorrhagic spots appear on the conjunctiva, and the discharge is mucopurulent, sometimes forming a gray-white pseudomembrane on the surface of the conjunctiva, and there may be gray-white infiltration spots on the corneal edge.

Second, the method.

1 At the beginning of the disease, the eyelids and conjunctiva are swollen, and cold compresses can be applied 3 times a day for 20 minutes each time. When one eye is red and the other eye is not yet infected, the head should be tilted toward the affected side when rinsing or applying eye drops to prevent secretion from flowing into the healthy eye.

2 Use antibacterial or antiviral solutions under the guidance of a doctor.

3 Wash secretions.

4 Pink eye has a ** cycle that takes 2-3 weeks. **If photophobia and tearing occur during the process, and the aggravation of eye pain, you need to go to the ophthalmologist in time.
