If conjunctivitis is suspected or confirmed, avoid touching the infected eye and then rubbing the other eye--this condition is very contagious.

By repute, eating goat’s milk yoghurt helps conjunctivitis.

A drop of lemon juice in an eye bath of warm water can really help refresh tired and strained eyes.

A drop of Linseed Oil in each eye can help soothe irritation caused externally, i.e. by grit, dirt or smoky environments.

Please seek professional advice If

- bloodshot eyes persist for longer than two days.
- there is unexplained eye pain and vision problems.
