Conjunctivitis: What populations are at highest risk of contracting the disease? How is the disease diagnosed and are there any groups of people who should be tested?
Conjunctivitis is the infection in the eye membrane: conjunctiva of the eye covering the white part of the eye along with the inner part of the eyelid, characterized by the swelling of the membrane resulting in the redness of the eyes. It is also referred as red or pink eye disease. The persons having seasonal allergic problems get easily conjunctivitis.
