Disease/Condition Glossary
Eye infections: Eye infections happen when bacteria infect the eye. Common bacterial eye infections include conjunctivitis, stye, and keratitis. Conjunctivitis (pink eye) is an infection of the conjunctiva (the white part of the eye) and the inner eyelid. A stye is a small bump on the eyelid or at the base of the eyelashes. Keratitis involves inflammation of the cornea and is especially common among contact lens users. Symptoms of eye infections include redness, pain, discomfort, itching, a burning sensation, and discharge from the eye.
Ear infections: Ear infections occur when bacteria affect the middle or outer ear, causing pain and inflammation. These infections often result from a blockage or swelling of the Eustachian tubes, which connect the ears to the back of the throat. The infection can cause pain due to inflammation and fluid accumulation. Symptoms of an ear infection include ear pain, discomfort, drainage of pus or fluid from the ear, pressure within the ear, and hearing loss.
