What Is Conjunctivitis (Pink Eye)
Pink eye, or conjunctivitis, happens when the thin, clear layer covering your eye and eyelid gets inflamed. It’s called “pink eye” because the inflammation makes the white part of your eye look red or pink. This can be caused by a virus, bacteria, allergies, or even irritants like smoke or dust. Common symptoms include redness, itching, watery eyes, and sometimes a sticky discharge. It’s highly contagious if caused by infection, so avoid touching your eyes and wash your hands often. Most cases clear up on their own, but if symptoms persist, see a doctor for treatment.
