Eye infection can be caused by bacteria, fungi, or viruses and can affect one or both eyes. Symptoms may include red or bloodshot eyes, itchiness, swelling, pain, discharge, and vision problems. Prompt medical care is important to prevent complications. Treatment may involve eye drops, topical medications, or oral antibiotics, as well as supportive therapy such as cold compresses. Severe cases may require urgent medical attention to prevent vision loss and other complications.
