The next article will provide you with more information about an eye infection. There are also some tips on how to heal these. The symptoms of an eye infection are, for example, a red eye, watery eye, painful eye, contact with sunlight is intolerable, etc.

Introduction

When people are on holiday, they sometimes have to deal with an eye infection. This is very difficult, because your eye becomes completely red and it also starts to water automatically, with the result that you can hardly keep your eye open. The question many then ask is, “How can this be cured?” This article will explain this to you all.

Causes

You naturally wonder how you contracted that eye infection. This inflammation is most common in people who are on holiday, because they are in a different climate than they are used to. People go to warm places and of course they need refreshment there and how can you look for refreshment on holiday? By going swimming, of course. By swimming we of course do not refer to the activity, but to the amount of chlorine in the water. If there is a significant amount of chlorine in the water, this increases the risk of contracting an eye infection. It still remains a chemical product to which the eye can react allergically. You can also get this from the wind or it might be better to say that the warm and tropical wind can make this worse together with the sun, because our eyes cannot tolerate bright sunlight at that time.If you wear lenses, you are more likely to get an eye infection because a lens is irritated very quickly. The slightest speck of dirt can cause inflammation or it could simply be an allergic reaction of your body to the fact that you wear lenses, but then we are left with another problem.

Symptoms

How can you be sure that you are dealing with an eye infection? There can hardly be any doubt about that, because the symptoms are obvious. Below you will see a summary of the symptoms.

• Your eye is completely red.
• You feel pressure on your eyes.
• All the veins have burst.
• Your eye naturally waters.
• Contact with the wind hurts.
• It hardly tolerates sunlight.
• Pus may also be involved.

Remedy

The most important thing is of course the remedy, because as you have already noticed, having an eye infection is not pleasant at all. But the question is what can you do about it? The first thing you should do is go to a pharmacy, because they will usually give you antibiotics (eye drops) straight away. But there is also a natural remedy and that is through chamomile tea. This works as follows: first you have to boil plain water. Then pour the water into a bowl and then add the tea extracts. Then you have to wait until it has cooled down and finally take a cloth cotton pad that you immerse in the tea and then apply to your eye. Do this several times in a row and repeat this a few times a day. If you use these tips, your eye infection will be completely healed after 4-5 days.
