Dry eyes can happen due to allergies or extreme weather conditions, and can cause the eyes to be irritable, itchy and red. Dry eye can be treated with eye drops and medicated eye drops.

Eye infections like keratitis and conjunctivitis, or pink eye, are common. Pink eye is usually caused by viruses, allergens or bacteria. Wearing contact lenses overnight can cause a buildup in bacteria which then causes pink eye. Pink eye is highly contagious, but our eye clinic in Spring can treat these types of infections. Patients should stay away from public places like work or school to avoid spreading the virus. The viral form of pink eye can result in large outbreaks depending on the type of virus. The bacterial form of pink eye, which is caused by certain bacteria, is also contagious, but more common in children than adults. The bacterial form is more common and less contagious. Non-contagious forms of pink eye that are most often treated are those caused by allergens and irritants.

Allergen-caused pink eye happens seasonally. They are generally caused by typical allergens such as mold, weed, plants, pet dander and more. Pink eye can be treated with eye drops, medications and other easy and gentle treatments. Both conditions can irritate eyes and cause problems if they aren’t treated successfully.
