Recently, the Guangdong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention issued a reminder that every summer and autumn, especially one or two weeks after enrollment, students gather on campus, which is often the high incidence season of "red eye disease". The reporter learned from some third tier hospitals in Guangzhou that the ophthalmology department of the hospital has received more than ten cases of red eye disease patients a day, with an increase in the number compared to usual. A family of patients have been recruited one after another. On the morning of September 18th, a family of three was admitted to the hospital for three days. At the outpatient clinic of Chief Physician Ben Yanjie at Guangdong Qifu Hospital, Mr. Li, who had red eyes, came to seek medical attention. According to his introduction, first, his son Xiao Ming (pseudonym), who is three and a half years old at home, suffered from "red eye disease"; The next day, my mother was infected; On the third day, Dad was also recruited. Upon examination, the man's eyelids were red and swollen, with conjunctival congestion. Ben Yanjie stated that in recent times, he has been seeing more than ten patients with red eye disease every day, some of whom have been recruited by his family. Eye redness requires timely medical attention. A grandmother with red eyes came to the ophthalmology department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, surrounded by her family members. After examination, Professor Huang Zhongwei, who received the diagnosis, found that besides obvious congestion and edema of the bulbar conjunctiva in both eyes, there was a large area of opacity in the cornea of her right eye. Originally, Grandma had keratitis but was not cured. She originally wanted to come to Guangzhou from another place to see her eye disease. As a result, I have just arrived in Guangzhou and have not recovered from my old illness. Suddenly, I have contracted acute conjunctivitis, and the whole family is very anxious. This is one of several "red eye disease" patients that Professor Huang Zhongwei has recently visited, with a distribution of patients across different age groups, including students. Huang Zhongwei introduced that the term "red eye disease" commonly referred to by the public specifically refers to acute conjunctivitis, which is prevalent in large areas during hot and humid weather in summer and autumn, and is often related to viral infection. Once red eye disease occurs, it can cause high swelling and congestion of the eyelids and conjunctiva, as well as obvious sandiness, photophobia, and tearing. But not all "eye redness" is red eye disease, and subconjunctival bleeding, allergies, and excessive eye use can all cause eye redness. Ren Benyanjie explained that "red eye disease" is not only accompanied by infrared rays in the eyes, but also by fever, pain, and itching in the eyes, and discomfort like sand entering the eyelids; At the beginning, it may be accompanied by tears, foreign body sensation, and burning sensation, as well as conjunctival congestion in the eyes; As the condition progresses, mucous or purulent secretions may appear, often causing the upper and lower eyelashes to stick together, making it difficult to wake up and open eyes in the morning. Huang Zhongwei specially reminds that if readers find their eyes red, it is best for them to go to the hospital and seek the help of an ophthalmologist for diagnosis. The most important thing is to exclude acute iridocyclitis and acute glaucoma, which are blinding eye diseases, in order to avoid treating them as red eye disease and causing the condition to be delayed. Confronting patients with red eyes will not be transmitted. Huang Zhongwei introduced that "red eye disease" is a contagious disease, and contact with towels and pillowcases used by patients often leads to the transmission of "red eye disease". Even contaminated eye drops used by patients can also be transmitted. However, the folk belief that "two people can infect by looking at each other with both eyes" is a fallacy. If someone in a family member is' caught ', how can they avoid spreading it to other family members? Ben Yanjie suggests that others should pay attention to eye and hand hygiene, wash their hands frequently, and not rub their eyes
