Common eye diseases like conjunctivitis and dry eye are usually less serious and can often be managed at home, but conditions like sudden vision loss or eye pain need immediate medical attention.
It's important to know when an eye problem is serious. Common eye issues, such as conjunctivitis (pink eye) or dry eye, often cause discomfort but are usually not dangerous and can be treated with simple remedies. However, there are certain signs that should prompt you to seek medical help quickly.
Understanding these signs can help you know when to seek help and when you might be able to manage the condition at home.
