Definition of the pathology

Viral conjunctivitis is an inflammation of the eye caused by viruses such as adenovirus or herpes, which causes symptoms such as severe eye discomfort, redness, itching and excessive tear production. Although viral conjunctivitis often clears up on its own, it is very important to see an ophthalmologist to confirm the type of conjunctivitis you have and to get the right advice to make treatment easier.
